Mr. Garrett Blaney:

I will cover the points raised by Deputy Fleming. We have a role in regard to the east-west interconnector. It has been a fairly direct role. We have had regular meetings with EirGrid on the development of the project. We reviewed all the costs on the project. We regulate it directly as a monopoly asset. I can give an update on the project currently. The interconnector is in operation but not in full operation. There have been telecoms issues and we have worked with the telecom regulator on that.
