I have a brief follow-up question. I welcome what Mr. Coyle said about An Bord Pleanála being properly resourced. He made reference to Scotland and seals and propellers. Is there similar evidence for cetaceans? One of the fears is not even the wind farm itself but the construction of the wind farm, the sonar and noise under the water for whales and dolphins. We heard from the Wind Energy Ireland, WEI, last week that the environmental NGOs need to be properly resourced so they can make the observations to the applications. Would Mr. Coyle support that also?
