I was at Easyfix also. It is a really innovative company that is bringing technology and research to bear on housing materials and investigating how they can be most effectively used. As the Deputy knows, in the recent budget I increased the solar energy allocation under TAMS for next year to 60%. An important component will be the feed-in tariff. We expect to have it in place early next year. That will see a significant drive regarding solar energy.

With regard to moving forward with our climate action plan and targets, we are considering all the different options that will contribute.
