This is where you have seen the big problems. Somebody is effectively putting in public infrastructure because, as I have said, there is only a charge for it when it is under a public road. If it is under a non-public road, an LIS road or a public road that has not been taken in charge, people are allowed put it in themselves at a much lower cost. Can Mr. Skeffington quickly calculate what it would cost to go 510 m? That would be the cost for 500 m because the first 10 m are included in the €2,272. Would it be 500 times €300?
