I thank Mr. Laffey for joining us. We must acknowledge where we have come from with 46% leaks in 2018 and where we were in 2014 with a lack of investment and bursting at the seams. Uisce Éireann's target is 25% by 2030. Is that ambitious enough? If any other organisation was in here looking for €2 billion with €500,000 going to waste - I know it is not directly - we would be asking a lot of questions. How can we sit here comfortably and accept 25% wastage?
