The work has been done, primarily by the Department of Communications, Climate Action and Environment, which has looked at the estimated cost of retrofitting our entire housing stock. Work has also been done by industry bodies. I do not have the figure for the total budget for this at the moment, but we can write to the committee with details. Some €13 million from the change in carbon pricing is going into the warmer homes scheme run by the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland, SEAI.
