I cannot speak for Lough Neagh. That is in Northern Ireland. As the Deputy points out, perhaps others can answer those questions. Regarding water quality, we have a big investment programme in improving our water quality, led by Irish Water. Many things contribute to pollution in our waterways. It is not all about farmers. It is not right to speak to them as if they are entirely to blame for everything that is wrong with our water quality. There is human waste as well and industrial waste. All of that needs to be reduced, and that is very much part of what we are doing.
