Mr. Dara Lynott:

I am not sure if I would agree. I do not have the figures to date but we are aware of substantial research done by governments and particularly the US EPA and the EU Commission. I am not sure if the same level of research has been commissioned by the sector itself. I would need to get some figures for the Deputy but I would bet that the non-commercial sector, particular governments and regulators, are probably the biggest procurers of research in this area, principally because they are trying to fulfil their statutory roles for the protection of health and the environment over a regulatory role.
