That is a good approach. Local authorities have a great deal of information on the harbours for which they are responsible. We have an estimate of the damage caused to that infrastructure in the past six weeks and are continuing to work on it. The Deputy and I share an interest in marine, coastal and island communities and the infrastructure they need. We are preparing a detailed assessment of the damage that needs to be repaired which I will bring to the Government. An inventory of infrastructure should be developed, although I am not sure of the extent of what is available. The Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government, my Department and local authorities, collectively, should have access to such an inventory. I will follow it up and ascertain what is available.
