I think of another major utility, namely, Irish Water. I am not sure it is the same utilities regulator but the relevant regulator did not allow some of the costs incurred by Irish Water to be taken into account for passing on to the customer. The regulator considered that there were different levels of investment. Will that situation arise here in terms of the cost of providing the fibre? Will the same principle apply?
