I asked this question of Deputy Pringle earlier. In some cases, this will come down to whether ISIF will or will not invest in companies. Who will make the decision as to whether something qualifies for investment? The legislation will be there and ISIF will be faced with a decision over whether something qualifies. If it goes overboard and makes a decision which is barely outside the legislation, are there penalties? How will that affect the investment?
