That is a large amount of road-based haulage traffic. We know the contribution road traffic is making to emissions. With respect to a €200 million potential investment in Rosslare Europort, and this is a question for Mr. Dunne also, is there an opportunity for Rosslare Europort to operate rail freight with lift-on, lift-off operations? Is that type of investment possible? There is connectivity to Belfast on the Rosslare line and connectivity, via Rosslare Strand and Waterford, to the western rail line. Alternatively, does the proximity of Belview Port make that impractical?
