Go raibh maith agat, a Cheann Comhairle. Guím breithlá sona duit fosta.
In Joanne Bunting's question, First Minister, she mentioned the ongoing strategies, and you responded to that. One of the long-term commitments made by the Executive goes back to 2010 and is about the building of Casement Park. Can you advise whether the funding for that and, indeed, other projects was raised at your meeting with the British Prime Minister, Keir Starmer?
