Cornwall is a very distinct part of this nation; I thank the Government for recognising that. It has great aspirations for further devolution. I understand that it has to show itself competent in the devolution areas that it already has, and I believe it has done so. It is not isolationist. It has recently become the area where geothermal energy has first been proven to be successful for the future economy, and it will be a major source of strategic rare minerals, not least lithium. On that basis, I look forward to the Minister’s reply. I beg to move.
