Mr. Rodney Doyle:

In any one year, we would plan for outages on the system to allow for maintenance, but also for new connections. For someone to connect, that person has to have a slot to connect so that our resources, his or her resources and the network is available for the person to connect and test. The same happens when an outage is happening. People are coming back on to the system following maintenance. That is planned and has to be flexed on an annual basis, depending on what happens on the system in real time. We plan to work around the resources available to it. Of course, the more connections to the system, the more pressure it will put on the system as a whole. However, the network will need to expand and grow and there are plans there to do exactly that, working closely with our colleagues in ESB Networks and our colleagues in the CRU, to make sure that those plans are robust enough to see us through that period, especially in the coming years.
