Regarding Irish energy prices versus European prices, there is research that shows we are up at the top of league tables of European prices. The CRU only has control of the elements it controls itself. However, what is the witnesses' assessment of why that is? Is there an issue with the pan-European market on the wholesale side, if we are still up at the top consistently? It knocks on to consumers, obviously. What is the CRU's view on what is going on there?
