<p>Well, thank you for that answer. I think we would all welcome the announcement and the fulfilment of a commitment that was made by Sir Keir Starmer that the Labour Government would introduce a Hillsborough law. Can I say there's also a recognition of the determination of that group of families in Liverpool, who not only ensured that there was an inquiry to expose the real events at Hillsborough, but also now to bring forward this proposal for law, which is long overdue and most necessary?</p>
<p>Can I also say, at the same time, of course, that it reflects the announcement of an inquiry into events at Orgreave? The reason why those events at Orgreave are so important is because they relate to an issue from the miners' strike of an abuse of state power, and, of course, had the events at Orgreave been properly investigated, then it might be that Hillsborough would never have occurred. Can I ask you—? Just in terms of your consideration and engagement with the UK Government over this, there are, of course, elements that relate to candour and public services in Wales. We obviously want to protect the role of Welsh Government in this while accepting in full the principle. So, it's the issue of implementation, I think, that is important, with the Welsh Government clearly needing to work with the UK Government and others in ensuring that we have effective legislation that delivers the things that I think those families from Liverpool who have fought so hard for this want to see implemented.</p>

<p>The First Minister references spending in Scotland. The recent decision by the UK Government gives a better deal&nbsp;to the SNP-led Scottish Government on capital spend than it does to the Labour-led Welsh Government here in Wales. She mentions the tour de force of the finance Cabinet Secretary; it's a bit of a tour de farce, isn't it, when you have a Welsh Government that pulls its punches on fighting for fair funding in order to be able to deliver public services in Wales.</p>
<p>When the Chancellor visited Wales in June after a terrible comprehensive spending review, she said she'd given the Welsh Government everything it had asked for. It was an awful indictment of its lack of ambition. So, with two Labour Governments, Wales continues to be underfunded. Labour knows this. Many of their prominent politicians have said so publicly. They know that this ties the Welsh Government's hands in meeting the challenges that affect people's everyday lives, yet Labour refuses to act. No wonder the people of Wales are losing faith in them and leaving them in droves.</p>
<p>So, my question is simple. Under this now year-old partnership in power, and with the next Senedd election just a little over six months away, will the First Minister commit that the Labour manifesto for that election will include an explicit pledge to scrap the Barnett formula and, crucially, that it will be ratified by Keir Starmer?</p>

<p>Pursuing&nbsp;fair funding isn't a constitutional issue, is it? I don't think I'm saying anything new in saying that there's a link between that overall funding package and the ability to deliver good public services.</p>
<p>It's a year ago this week that the First Minister proudly said that Keir Starmer was, and I quote, ‘in listening mode’ when it comes to fair funding for Wales. The First Minister also said that she'd raised the issue with the Chancellor, who for the time being at least remains in post. And we are in the run-up, of course, to her next budget now, the most important time to make the case for Wales at a UK level. This budget is Labour's opportunity to prove once and for all that it is serious about addressing the way in which the Welsh Government is resourced.</p>
<p>Plaid Cymru's motion, the First Minister will remember, to scrap the Barnett formula had the unanimous backing of this Senedd before the summer. Given the Prime Minister was in listening mode 12 months ago, I ask a second time: what update has Keir Starmer recently shared with the First Minister on his attitude towards fair funding for Wales? Is he changing his mind?</p>
