I listened to the Tánaiste’s reply earlier that he is determined to increase wind energy by 2030. International investors hear that, they come to Ireland and they leave shortly thereafter shaking their heads. When will the marine area consents be granted for phase 2? What are the criteria going to be? Will power-to-X be included in that or will it not? Because international investors are completely in the dark as to what the Government's plans are, they simply do not hang around. They leave and invest in Scotland, which is massively upping production. We are talking about doing this a lot but there is nothing happening.
