I thank the Minister and wish him every success with his efforts with the glide path model he has described. It might be helpful if it were to be declared by both sides that in the event of a doubling in the world price, a list of specific projects would become worthwhile; and in the event of a further doubling, another set of projects would become worthwhile, etc. Something similar could be provided for within houses. That would facilitate better decision-making in the entire area. I commend the Minister on his efforts to get us to abide by such a scale, both in the production of electricity and in its consumption.
