Yes. She said cutover was typically for domestic turf cutting. I have engaged in domestic turf cutting and I worked for a State company that was extracting peat. The State company was cutting over; it was taking off 1 m to 2 m. As regards cutaway, when turf cutting for ourselves, we went straight down to the gravel or the white sand at the bottom. That is cutaway. There is some confusion with those two terms. I can take Dr. Renou-Wilson to a number of bogs where Bord na Móna has used cutover techniques and taken 1 m to 2 m from the top of the bog. I know this has caused damage, but that is not the argument I am making. I am simply referring to the terms as there is confusion on those two points.
