Ms Oonagh Buckley:

We prefer to try to make sure everybody achieves their targets here. If we have to achieve compliance through other routes - there is a European sharing arrangement we could avail of - the costs would be very high. It is hard to calculate them at the moment because it would be dependent on what would be charged for emissions sharing at that point in time. Certainly, we would be much better off spending that money here at home doing things such as retrofits than doing that.
