No, I do not think it does. The climate action plan speaks very clearly about energy security. The Government made a decision on the floating storage regasification unit, FSRU, that there be a State-owned and operated liquid natural gas reserve in the event of something happening to our existing connections. That was a risk we could not ignore. In her public commentary on this, Marie Donnelly, as chairperson of the council, fully understood why that decision was taken. It is not contrary to our climate plan in my view. Others will have a different view but I do not think it is a risk we could ignore. That will be on a temporary basis.
