I have two supplementary questions if that is okay. They might flow into the answers. Perhaps it might be helpful to the committee if the CRU could outline the capacity of the interconnectors for export at the moment, versus what we might be aiming for in the future.

With regard to the comments made about smart metering, has the Data Protection Commission ruled that energy usage data is captured by the GDPR, or is it an assumption on the part of the CRU? Perhaps the CRU representatives could provide us with more information on that.
