I said at the start and have said repeatedly that the document sets out what we want to achieve, where we want to achieve it and the ambition behind it. The ten-year capital investment plan and the further capital investment plans that will come after it will dictate the infrastructure that will be funded. We are saying what we think is needed and identifying the areas we want to develop. Decisions will have to be made on how that will happen. I am not here to list a range of proposals. If we were to do so in the draft, every Deputy would his or her own projects. We have set out what we want to achieve in the regions. There will be a natural progression to address what has to happen. We have mentioned some projects to which we are committed. They are examples. I cannot keep repeating that all of the decisions will be made in the ten-year capital investment plan which will be aligned with the document. We would all love to have them listed. I would too because I agree with many of them, but I cannot do so today. That is not what the plan is about.
