I had asked about the renewable heat incentive scheme, which is proposed but has not come into being. If that created more demand for heat from a facility like this one, is Mr. Melvin saying that the State would subsidise not only that, but also the generation? Is that how it will work out? If there is suddenly an increase in the market for woodchips and a facility does not use its 70% by burning it but by selling it into the market, is that the sort of consideration that Mr. Melvin has in mind?
