I thank the Minister. I ask him to expand on the potential implications in the context of oil and related liquid fuels. There have been reports on the prospect of liquified natural gas, LNG, usage in the context of the energy security review. We have heard different things from different parties in government and different State agencies, whether the Commission for Regulation of Utilities, EirGrid or other agencies that have appeared at the climate committee. What is the position in respect of LNG? Is there a different position in respect of commercial LNG as compared with State-owned LNG? Is that something the Government is considering? If we end up in that position, it will be an indictment of the management of this transition.
