Mr. Denis O'Sullivan:
The nature of how the stations network would be funded is yet to be determined depending on the policy measures that are put in place. With regard to one of the items my colleague referred to in terms of incentives, we believe that some measures introduced around the taxation of commercial vehicles, especially heavy goods vehicles, could incentive this to facilitate users of these stations contributing towards the cost of it, but there is a requirement for some public funding to support the initial roll-out of stations.
