The Deputy is right that it makes sense to have all this joined up. That is why we have been working and finalising the strategy for anaerobic digestion. It is pretty much finished. The final engagement is happening across the Departments. We hope to publish it in the very near future. That looks at the different aspects of it. The Deputy is right that the feedstock needs to be sustainable. That needs to be thought about too, as does how it is spread out. These is also a matter of giving people guidance about what funding streams are possible or not. The strategy takes into account those different aspects and will provide that clarity and coherence from a policy point of view.
