There is a senior geologist present. Has the Department established any fact on the ground? The only facts and figures we are getting come from Tamboran Resources about what is to be found under the ground and what can be extracted. I know Mr. Ó hÓbáin touched briefly on this issue, but it is important to find out the Department's view because we have not heard anything from it. It must have carried out seismic studies. There is also a body of evidence dating back over 30 years which Tamboran Resources is using to establish its bona fides.
