I thank Mr. Berney. I have some supplementary questions. Leaving aside what Irish Water has or has not proposed, knowing the water services sector as Mr. Berney does, what does he think will be the impact of removing 1,000 full-time equivalent staff by 2021? Do the unions have a view on the future reconfiguration of the utility and Irish Water moving towards becoming a non-commercial semi-State company? Would that be a positive development and, if so, why?
