I have some concluding questions. To return to the issue of the carriages and the failure to deliver them in the specified timeframe of 2025, and the fact that failure to deliver them is essentially holding to ransom the rest of the country and the rest of the network, I would like more information. On a number of occasions it has been said that the delay is down to the supplier and it is a supplier issue. Will the Department elaborate a little bit on this? Why is there this delay? I know the Department has said there was safety testing and all of that.
