I promise I will be brief. I have two questions that I did not get to earlier. Some information the witnesses provided relates to arrears and the electricity market with the caveat that we are going into the winter period, so it will become more difficult for people. That seems to be fairly static, but it is not the same for domestic gas customers. The witnesses mentioned that they have provided that. Will they elaborate on what measures the CRU is taking for domestic gas customers to make sure that we will not see people disconnected from their heating over the winter months?

The witnesses referred to targeting customers who are most in need. We know that Traveller households pay a particularly large proportion of their income towards their energy needs. Many Travellers did not receive the energy credit because of the shared MPRN. That was flagged with the Minister at a select committee meeting. Is the CRU engaging with the Department and local authorities to make sure, particularly now that we know there will probably be three credits, that those who are the most in need in the Traveller community, namely, those living on halting sites, will benefit from the electricity credit?
