I thank Deputy Leddin. I will ask Mr. Nolan to come in in a second again. I reiterate what I said. In terms of all farming types and all farming practices right across the sector, we have to be determined to ensure that water quality is central to what we do, to ensure that it improves over the time ahead and to ensure that from an agricultural point of view our practice does not detrimentally impact it. Therefore, the controls and the advice we have in place is important, and particularly the advice we have in place around the derogation.
