My officials are in discussions with Fuels for Ireland which is the industry representative body. We have supplies to meet normal demand. They are slightly nervous about that sort of profiteering or storing and that is why they have introduced some measures to discourage that, as reported in today's newspapers. If everyone keeps their head and follows proper processes, we will have sufficient supply. As I said, Russian oil represents only a small percentage of our imports and Russian gas represents a very small percentage. Therefore, we are probably in a better security situation than others, but we will keep it under review.

What was the Deputy's second question?
