Mr. Brian O'Connell:
They have been advertised. We can only respond to the market. In Spiddal we would be confident. With Oughterard, again, before we go back out to the market we do an assessment to see what would be the most valuable option. We do not just stick blindly to the operational lease. We do a trawl of all options available to us before we readvertise. Those reviews have been done. We still believe that for those two locations the most viable mechanism is still the operational lease. We will know if a viable option comes back towards the end of the year but if one does not come back, we will have to reconsider that decision. At the moment, that is still the preferred mechanism to deliver those two locations.
