The Deputy's sound has gone there but I think he is asking that if a person has two or three plots of land on one farm, can he or she avail of this more than once? It would be sensible if a person could. It is for small-scale plantations. It would not be something that would be open to abuse in the form of putting several together to form a larger plantation that would require a licence. However, within reason it should be possible to have more than one on a particular holding. That is something we will examine in further detail and consult people on when we are putting the detail of the scheme together. Certainly in principle and at this remove, it is something we would encourage.
