I think that covers it. I was going to make a final point about offshore wind. The Minister has talked about Brexit, the issue of quotas and the issue of the fuel subsidy. We agree that offshore wind has a very important role to play in our responsibilities as a State. We need to make sure the fishing communities are consulted. I have seen some really strong contributions in recent days about looking at floating turbines that are further out and are not on the fishing grounds. I want to put the request on the record that this be considered as part of the Minister's deliberations. The Minister does not need to respond, he has been more than good.
