Ms Marie Donnelly:

Of course I will say "Yes" to that question. I will ask Ms Gallagher to give some idea of the composition of the carbon budget working group. The method that we used was as follows. We set up a carbon budget working group, which brought together an enormous amount of expertise within Ireland. They worked together over a period of more than a year. They did a number of analyses using different models and different scenarios. They routinely reported to the council so that we were aware of - not interfering with - what was going on. They produced the reports for the council. At the end, the council went through the final analysis to make the selection of the scenarios that would fit the criteria of the Act. That is how we came up with the numbers we have there. Mr. Hussey is the chair of the carbon budget working group. I ask him to outline who was there, what kind of analysis was taking place and what kind of expertise we were able to draw into the carbon budget working group in order to give us the best knowledge and best expertise in producing this recommendation.
