The definition, as it stands, does not include marketing, but it does cover storage. If there was a need to include marketing, it is something we could look at relatively easy on Committee Stage. There is a provision dealing with pooled resources and that the ISIF have a bundle of investments. This relates to the first part of the Deputy’s question. It may legally be tied to a period for them.
They will have to facilitate that period. It may be more than five years but the intent would be that those investments would not be renewed subsequently.
