I have one very quick question. I will return to that question about catchment and the analysis of the different catchment areas. Some farms will straddle different catchments. They may have an outside farm or, for example, farms in the Bandon-River Lee area may run across the top of Newcestown-Templemartin. The farm could be in both catchment areas. Could farms end up with different outcomes for different catchment areas? How would they handle that?
