It would be because first we have to identify the site and there will be site surveys and all the things all Deputies here will know as regards planning. Onshore works will be required as regards piers, pipeline and so on. We are trying to accelerate this project. I have already met with the project group, GNI and my Department initially to step this out. It is hard to know how long it will take through the planning system, but this would be projected for delivery in the early 2030s. I would like to see it sooner but that is subject to planning. Who knows whether planning will be granted for it. It is all those things.
