I have that and I thank Ms Tallon. In its value for money model, does the Department calculate revenue forgone? For example, Veolia obviously is not doing this for the good of its health. It becomes involved in such a contract because it is a generator of revenue, which is absolutely legitimate from its perspective. Does the Department factor in the aforementioned revenue forgone to the local authority in this respect?
