The only swap is that instead of the funding going to 34 local authorities to provide water services, it is going to Irish Water. The Deputy subsequently referred to EUROSTAT and the water conservation grant. EUROSTAT has not delivered on this at all. If the Deputy has some commentary from EUROSTAT on this, I would like to see it. It is an independent body and it will give its deliberations in time. I am absolutely confident we will pass that test.
