Okay. Some 884,000 meters have been installed so, give or take, 116,000 meters have yet to be installed.

I understand that the total cost of installation is €465 million, which, I appreciate, based on a wholly inappropriate average, works out at €526 per meter. The installation of the remaining 332,000 meters would - on the basis that meters cannot be installed in 20% of premises - bring us to 80%. What is estimated installation cost in respect of those 80% of domestic households? Will our guests indicate the estimated cost of installing each meter in order that the committee might come up with a figure in respect of both economies and an on-demand meter installation programme?
