Yes. Did Enet apply pressure in 2017? The contract was extended in March 2017, it was bought by the Irish Infrastructure Fund in July 2017 and due diligence was being done. Obviously Granaghan McCourt would have been aware that due diligence was being done because the information would be needed to do that. Was pressure put on the Department? The first contract did not expire until 2019 and the second one until 2024. Was pressure put on the Department to extend the contract by Enet in advance of 2019?
