I would like to put a final question to Mr. McDonald before I put one or two questions to the officials from the EPA. As I understand it, the ESRI study he mentioned estimates that costs of €4 billion, or indeed more, could arise as a consequence of an accident - please God it will not ever happen - at Hinkley Point. Does the Department agree with the assessment in the ESRI study?
