I will ask just one quick question before I let Senator Murphy in. The Minister of State, Deputy Carroll MacNeill, said there are 2,000 of these properties. Have we any indication since we spoke last as to how many of them have open fires still? The petitioners will tell us that even those who have no open fires and have heat pumps installed are still seeing no reduction in their premiums. Have we any indication as to how many of the 2,000 still have open fires?
