Mr. William Walsh:

From the perspective of the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland, we have excellent relationships and we do work with a number of local authorities. The Deputy mentioned Fingal. We have excellent relationships in some of our communities' programmes in places like Tipperary. As a collective and the local authority system we have moved towards that relationship with the overall body that represents each of the local authorities. We are finding ourselves, as the national retrofit delivery body, moving towards a better relationship. I understand the Deputy's question relates to funding. From a departmental perspective, that discussion is probably is between Departments and the Department of Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform.
