Ms Ruth Buggie:

Possibly. It could be the broad nature of SECs and where this actually sits within the different local authority structures. We certainly engage with local authorities in various different ways and with different staff, depending on what is being done and which area they are interested in. I would not take it as a reflection of their interest in the programme or their support of the programme. They have certainly moved very much in the last year to do that pre-financing of the energy master plan. They are effectively cash-rolling the communities so they do not have to get other funding to deliver the energy master plan. It has been very successful in that way.

With regard to the 12 that are there, we do not target them and we have not invited them specifically. Maybe that is something we can take from today, namely, that we reach out to the others that are not there and invite them to actively participate in the network as an action from our conversation.
