I do not think that anyone else wants to come in on that issue, but I wonder whether Ms Sturgeon Shea wishes to comment on the possibilities of cross-co-operation. Would it worry you if a lot of people in theatre were leaving to work in the screen industry?

Mr McVay, the news from the screen industry is very positive, which is something that we do not hear a lot of just now with regard to post-Covid economic recovery. I want to understand some of the challenges around filling the gap of 30,000 jobs in the sector. Those jobs could never be filled purely by people who are currently living, studying and working in Scotland. Do you have people coming from Europe and beyond to work on the productions? Has Brexit had any impact on that? Has that been a challenge for you?
The committee also heard that many people have left industries in which there is a reliance on short-term and freelance contracts, because of the lack of job security. Is the sector remodelling how it might work with regard to job security?

I will ask the clerks to write to the TMSA to request answers to the questions that it has not been possible to have answered, as it would be helpful to have those.
We will go to Mr Baker first.
