I accept that. As regards connections to homes, there will always be unique challenges, but that is not my question. The evidence we have received is that there are still a couple of local authorities that are not as efficient in general as the local authorities in turning around these projects. My question is what the Department is doing to ensure that we are all playing on a level playing pitch and that people in some parts of the country are not being discriminated against depending on the particular engineer or the particular official who is in charge of delivering on these licences. That is what none of us want to see happen.
