It could be argued that it will limit the ability to make investments. Of course, it will as that is the intention of the legislation. Bord na Móna is a State body involved in peat extraction and in which the Ireland Strategic Investment Fund, ISIF, would not be able to invest. From the earlier conversation, was it suggested there might be openness to an amendment to allow the ISIF to invest in parts of that State body?
