We must bear in mind that some of those people that were forgotten or who lost out early in 2001 and 2002, when they got nothing, they were left high and dry and some of them had to go out to work. They would not have got the opportunity to do the green certificate. Does Mr. Morrin understand me? I have looked at a lot of cases and there is one or two things in every one that is catching people. We must be flexible in regard to them. We might talk about it if the Chair allows. Would the committee be allowed to make a submission to the Department about it?
