My last point on this issue is the that, as we know, electricity and heating prices have increased massively. People are becoming more and more concerned about it. It could be a situation that this is not in a general public conversation right now. However, the issue of energy cost rises certainly is. It could be discussed at a later date. It would be interesting to look at that, and look at the fact that the likes of Portugal has done this. It would be an interesting conversation to have. I always think that it is better to have done the research before it becomes a problem.
