Ms Carolan Lennon:

There are a couple of issues. The fact that there are state aid rules on top adds a level of complexity. From where we were coming as a regulated ex-incumbent, Eir had a level of complexity. However, we were of the view that if we had a commercial case to deliver the NBP - we do not, but if we did - we could have done it cheaper and faster than it could have been through that NBP process because of the complexity and cost that arose from it.
