Perhaps he might clarify that. There is still an issue with hidden costs associated with making an application when we do not know what the application form is yet. We have the application available in the North of Ireland that must be filled in and sent to Northern Ireland Water. There is much to be filled in on that form, but the form we expect people to fill, if this Bill is passed, would be much more onerous because it is a registration system. There is no registration system in place yet in the North of Ireland, although I understand they are looking at bringing in such a system, but the form is still quite onerous. We are expecting many elderly people in rural Ireland to fill in an application form that could be onerous, but we do not know what standards they are expected to meet thereafter. We are proposing this amendment to the Bill to defray additional costs for people when those costs could accumulate through information they may need to provide and which may not be readily available to them.
