We will come to it; I have a number of questions. A lot of the points that came up earlier were around involvement with the neighbours. I would be more familiar with the development of wind farms. One of the huge things those involved in wind farms have learned to do in more recent years is to engage with the local community, and they run different events ahead of any planning application being made. To what extent do the witnesses' operations engage with local communities throughout and afterwards? There is a community fund, for example, with the wind farms, but also co-operation and living with your neighbours. What kind of engagement takes place with the locals?
