I thank the Minister of State and for his answer and for his letter, which contained more responses.

I have two more questions. I saw yesterday in the Seanad that a number of 54,000 connections was mentioned. I think the milestone was set at 60,000 homes being ready for connection by the end of January, although I am open to correction on that. Is that correct? I am told that there are 34,000 and that the Minister of State can forward order another 20,000 that are not yet ready for connection. Is that accurate? What is the Minister of State’s own role in calling out the milestones?

What are the specific targets for 2022 at this point?
