ALT Mr Baker: May I ask a wee question? Mr Givan: I thought that I had heard something. Feel free, Danny. Mr Baker: Thank you. Before you continue, will you break down the £7 million figure for this year, please? Mr Givan: After the Bill goes through Final Stage and receives Royal Assent, we will be coming into the Christmas period, after which we will hit half term and Easter. We therefore considered the provision's becoming a legal requirement on the granting of Royal Assent and worked through what that will mean for the cost associated with giving effect to the legislation. Sorry, do you want to come in again? Mr Baker: That is great news. I hope that we can have the legislation in place by Christmas, so it is good that you are on that page. Thank you.
