    <Contribution_English>&lt;p&gt;Bore da. Good morning, everybody.&amp;nbsp;Welcome to our Finance Committee this morning. Just to note that the public items of the meeting are being broadcast live on Senedd.tv and a Record of Proceedings will be published as usual. The meeting is fully bilingual and simultaneous interpretation is available as well. We've had no apologies for absence this morning. The first item on our agenda, linked to that then also, is whether there are any declarations of interest. No. Diolch yn fawr iawn. Thank you very much.&lt;/p&gt;</Contribution_English>
