That is fine. Can I move on to a couple of points in the limited time that I have?
When Bord Gáis went into the electricity market, my understanding is that it was effectively able to use its billing system at relatively low cost. Why did the same not happen in the establishment of Irish Water? One of the reasons that Bord Gáis is the provider is that it brought this synergy with it. Why could it happen when it went into the electricity market but it appears to have to reinvent the wheel when it goes into the water market?
