Mr. Liam O'Sullivan:

We are in the process of extending gas to Nenagh and Wexford. These extensions are on foot of assessments, which are ongoing, of all the towns in the State which do not have gas already. We focus exactly on the types of loads and heavy users such as hotels and industries. We run the assessments again when any new industry which comes to a location to see if we can generate a case. Ultimately we are subject to the guidelines from the Commission for Energy Regulation that when a network is extended, it has to have a positive overall return to the economy and to customers. That will continue to be the case. There is no question that it does help to grow the load when a new industry comes into a location with existing industries. That is what happened in Wexford and Nenagh when new loads have come on and we will continue looking to do that in other areas.
