Does Mr. Quinn think that Bord na Móna will lose market share given that peat briquettes coming in from Estonia and other places are being sold more cheaply than the price at which Bord na Móna can produce them? I would be the first to say that they may not be of the same quality. If the price of the biomass briquette increases, which will be the case until Bord na Móna can refine the product and get more of it, will market share be lost? In addition, does Bord na Móna envisage losing market share in the next few years in the horticulture business in England where there is a huge drive against the use of peat? Mr. Quinn said Bord na Móna is seeking to capture some of the additional 70% of market share in the UK. From what I am aware, there is a huge clampdown on peat in England. Am I correct in that regard?
