Patrick Ward - Breedon Group plc - Group Chief Executive & Director

Good morning, everybody. Thanks for coming, and welcome to everyone who's joining us on the webcast. Can I start by introducing our new Chairman, Amit Bhatia? As you know, he succeeded Peter Tom in June. And we're delighted that he's agreed to lead our Board through the next stage of Breedon's development.

If you haven't had a chance to meet him yet, he'll be around after the meeting. It'd be great if you can catch up with him.

And we want to make sure we don't throw Amit under the [cars] immediately.

We're really pleased to be reporting a strong set of results for the first half. We've delivered a resilient performance in a very challenging construction market here in Great Britain and a solid result from cement and an excellent outcome from our Irish business.

The team continues to do a great job.

I'll go into
