Is that not a gap? As Dr. McGoff said in her statement, derogation farmers have to go through many hoops. I think there have been 30-something different hoops over the past three years regarding farming, how they operate, water storage and huge issues regarding how to spread slurry, and then other farmers might not be in derogation. We cannot classify one against the other regarding water quality.
