I was not saying that the industrial users should not get an incentive. I would argue as to whether they require an incentive because in drawing up their financial plans for the future they can see that they will be a return on it. However, domestic users would need an incentive not only in terms of meeting our targets but stimulating an industry across rural Ireland that could develop, grow and provide jobs. That is where the importance of providing an domestic incentive comes into the equation. The Government has decided that it will incentivise business and the business sector gets many incentives. It is time for the householder to get an incentive and for domestic renewable heat production to be incentivised.
