I thank the Member for her question. I know that it is an issue that she is passionate about. I share that passion. As an Executive, we have a focus on regional balance. That has come through in key decisions that have been taken across a number of Departments. The work that has been taken forward under the city and growth deals, for example, is positive and will see real change in the coming years. It will continue to take all of us who are passionate about the issue to ensure that delivery is being made on addressing the historical regional imbalances that have been faced, particularly in the west, south-west and north-west.
