Mr. Fintan Slye:

A point the Deputy picked up on was in terms of when design decisions were taken on the North-South project. Our view is that the most appropriate solution for North-South is a 400 kV overhead line and the planning application, a draft of which is with An Bord Pleanála as we speak, is based upon a 400 kV overhead line solution. The Deputy is right, it is stating that as our preferred option.
