I thank Mr. Smith. We are out of time. This was a super-interesting session. We got so much information. We hear the witnesses' asks. I have no doubt the Department, the regulator and EirGrid have been watching the meeting in any case but, as a committee, we will certainly push the asks in any engagements we have with them in the coming weeks and months. It is very exciting. It is really good to know there is a representative organisation that is really on this. It is clear from today's engagement that it is, which bodes well for the development of the sector and the market, I hope, when we know a little more about it in a few months.

The joint committee will now adjourn, to be followed by a meeting of the select committee at 1 p.m. I thank the witnesses for their attendance.
