This is an important issue. The credits arise from public resources investment. It is the chicken and the egg. Ultimately, the consumer is paying for it by providing for the investment in the first place. It is of public interest that we have full disclosure and that there be public accountability. I do not think it is a matter that should be confidential because, ultimately, the consumer is paying for it in one way or another, whether through the Exchequer or direct as a customer. Do I have a commitment from each of the companies that the figures will be produced? Is it the position of all three companies that the reconnection fee will not increase if a premises is reconnected after a period of 18 months?
