I will pick up on a couple of points. This is a fair conversation about data centres. I do not think all data centres are equal. The business models of individual companies are different. Not all of them are working in the space of remote working and cloud technology. It is important to recognise that we have an increasing number of islanded data centres that are seeking connection to our gas grid, which is of concern. Data centres are also being built without a tenant, so to speak, which needs to be considered to ensure they are doing what we want them to do. I make those points.
