Okay. When this process is begun, I presume that the Minister would agree that it is not feasible at the moment and it does not happen at scale anywhere in cement production/ I think the danger of carbon capture and storage is that it acts as an illusion and we are told not to worry because this technology is around the corner and we can just keep going. If this does not prove to be feasible, at what point or in what year does the Minister say that we have had enough and that we need to wind this down and focus more on the question of alternatives?
