Mr. Liam O'Sullivan:

Our approach to that is that we are putting in three of these next year, thanks to the innovation funding that the CER has put in place. During 2016, we hope to arrive at a position where we have all the funding arrangements sorted out and an agreement between all the different stakeholders, including Departments, the regulator and ourselves. From 2017 onwards, we will be rolling out the full stream and a full picture of what we see here. That is the kind of timeline and we see it happening fairly quickly. We took a bit of time initially to get people up to speed and to achieve a consensus. Once that is there, and I believe it is, then it becomes much easier to move forward.
