Mr. Ken Spratt:

No. We have very good modelling done by the various different agencies. The National Transport Authority, for example, would look at users and how to reduce travel demand and modal switch. There is very good modelling done and I can set that out in a note for the Deputy. Also, TII has done very good modelling on vehicles and fuels. We draw on other specialists as well. I can provide the Deputy with a note. It will be very complex because this is a complicated area.
