Mr. Tony Smyth:

There is a range of legal and policy issues in that question. When we make a proposal to do that, we bring forward the technical solutions built in with the environmental solution within a particular legal framework. I do not believe anybody can trump us and I do not know that it is appropriate to have a flood-risk management agency having a greater say in some of those other issues. The Deputy is getting into a range of policy issues that I would not be comfortable speaking about. There are policy issues but there are also legal things. There is environmental legislation with which we have to comply when we are bringing forward proposals on those things.
