I thank Mr. Forde. I have one final question. Is it reasonable to assume that blocks containing deleterious material at some point made their way across the Border into Derry or adjoining counties for construction purposes? I am sure we would have had construction companies working cross-Border. Is anybody aware of a redress scheme in Northern Ireland? Is there any learning? Is there anything in place to assist homeowners? Does it actually exist across the Border? Is anybody aware of a redress scheme that is in place?
