Can I stop Mr. Casey there because I am running out of time. Let us take the example of the HSE. I am not talking about a specific building, but about public money that is being used to purchase sites that we know will definitely be flooded. There may be a modern building, but it will be flooded. Is the OPW reaching out to groups or organisations, such as the HSE, that are funded directly by the State to tell them to please not purchase properties, whether they are needed or not, in areas where we know there will be flooding?
