I will be brief. I want to return to a point my colleague Deputy Lahart raised earlier about what we call individual supplies and group water scheme supplies. It is quite interesting to hear the low percentages in both areas. It is significantly higher here. My question is about the initial capital investment into both hamlet schemes and individual schemes. What level of support is provided for them? Equally, on the ongoing operational side of it, is any support provided to both these types of supplies?
