Do the community groups represented here today feel there has been a failure to implement the EIS? How will the proposed strategic environmental assessment, SEA, work, particularly in relation to Article 3 of the EIA and all the facts outlined? What do they propose? That will come up for public consultation, where they will have a role. What do they see as the important factors that can be put forward to ensure, as Deputy Cowen says, that this SEA will incorporate the entire area?
