There is always a question mark. Deputy Bruton asked earlier whether one can be absolutely certain that projects cleared through an auction process will in the end be delivered. One cannot be. There can be a variety of measures. The emergency purchase and emergency procurement on their own will not be sufficient; we need to see the auctions deliver, along with further auctions to come, because we have a very tight situation with power supply and need to address it.
