Indeed. I just wanted to explain that. I missed some of the presentations, so if I repeat what has been said, please forgive me.

I ask about the €1 billion that we have heard a lot about. Will Ms Lennon break down exactly where that figure comes from and how Eir estimates that the build-out would be €1 billion? I refer to the build-out connection. Does that include maintaining the service for 35 years, if Eir went with the contract through? Does it include VAT? Does it include all the aspects of the bid? Was that €1 billion in the tender documents that Eir submitted on day one?
