I am going to bring it back very quickly. We are talking about enterprises. If the system were replaced with a woodchip system, a third-party company could be got in that could avail of the support scheme for renewable heat. There are issues in relation to woodchip and planning law. In fairness to the Sustainable Energy Authority of Ireland, it is involved in a feasibility study on geothermal energy. What are the possibilities for a grant scheme or otherwise that would work for a company providing a solution? There will be a need for that because otherwise there will be considerable capital expenditure on the backs of the approximately 200 residents of Carlinn Hall, which would not work. I am not looking for specifics on this but just explaining where my question is coming from. That is why I was requesting leeway.
