Mr. Fergal Mulligan:

It is the experience of this and other projects that in the absence of a detailed engagement with the people who might do a plan B, it is highly dangerous to publish numbers for plan B1, B2 or B3 because, in two years' time, somebody could tell us that we got that completely wrong if one went to a plan B. The other part of that is, if for some reason there was a plan B, we do not want to give away our hand on what the internal workings are and what it would cost, for example, to bring fibre to a certain point in the village or outside the village. Of course, we got detailed costings of all of that. If we ever had to go to the market, inevitably, the market would provide very different costings. That is the challenge one has on a plan B.
