Mr. Jerry Grant:

In general, yes, but we did pass over areas for safety and other reasons. There may be some properties in respect of which meters could be installed easily enough, technically speaking. Many were passed over because the stopcock could not be found or because it was not possible to prove a connection to a household, all of which costs money. The Deputy is correct that, in general, future metering, except in situations of redevelopment of the network, will cost more proportionately.
