My next question might be more for the departmental officials. In fairness to Mr. Moloney, I asked at the previous meeting about plastic coming in across the Border. It is hard to put a figure on that, which I understand fully. I assume he will agree that it would be a worthwhile exercise for the Department to look into that. We need to know how much plastic is in storage all around the country. Going by the figures I am looking at, there is a lot more that what Mr. Moloney has indicated. He said there is only 10,000 or 11,000 tonnes and I have to take his word on that. We need to get on top of this. I assume the IFFPG is liaising with the Littleton facility to which the Chairman referred. If that plant gets to the figures that are being talking about, I presume that will solve many of the headaches in the plastic industry. Does Mr. Moloney agree?
