I am assuming that labour, as opposed to funding, is the main constraint. On the capacity issue that exists in terms of the labour force, are schemes in competition with each other? For example, are the people who are putting in for the 50% retrofit cutting across demand for the warmer homes scheme? From a contractor's point of view, what is more attractive? Dr. Byrne spoke about the public tender that was put out. He said that the SEAI got 36 companies out of that. What is the incentive for an individual contractor to opt for somebody who is paying that 50% and getting the other 50% grant-aided versus a warmer homes scheme retrofit versus a local authority retrofit? If I was a contractor, which one would I choose and why?
