Some of them are connected so it might be easier to do so. The reason I am asking them so quickly is to ensure the witnesses get enough time to answer. How much are the operating costs of the IFFPG? How much money must it have on deposit in the event that all contractors' yards have to be cleared? Where is this money? Where are farm plastics being recycled outside of Ireland at present? What facilities are being used in Ireland and are there plans to incinerate this farm plastic waste?

This is my final question. As a non-profit scheme, when we go to the Companies Registration Office, CRO, website, why can we not view the full set of accounts for the IFFPG and why should they be hidden under EU 105 regulation as a non-profit scheme? Mr. Moloney might be able to answer some of those questions.
