Okay. I have a final tangential question. Customers of Electric Ireland receive their bills and the energy credit that was passed through the Houses of the Oireachtas. We have had a number of queries about how Electric Ireland is applying the credit so could I get clarification on that? Is the VAT being applied to the bill charge before or after the deduction? If it is applied before the deduction, customers would pay €24 more on a €300 charge than if it occurred after the deduction.
