Mr. Fintan Slye:

That relates to another reason that might be relevant. The committee might stop me if it is not relevant. This is one of the reasons why the route for the North-South interconnector has a preference for agricultural land over local roads. When we were doing the routing for an underground option for the interconnector, we considered all the options, including disused rail lines, existing roads and agricultural land. We have touched on one of the key issues why, in the case of the North-South interconnector, agricultural land is the optimal route corridor. That is distinct from the Grid West project, which only needs a third of the capacity, as a 500 MW interconnector, and there is much less sterilisation-----
