I thank the Minister for his thorough reply. In the context of compliance, is the Minister in a position to state whether the charge - be it €5 or €50 - that has been imposed on people will cover the cost of inspections? Last year, he indicated that the process of ensuring compliance would be lenient in nature. Will the charges to which I refer offset the cost of inspections?
