I understand that. I would welcome a little more explanation on that, as to why that is necessary, because I caught some echoes of the Senator's concerns but they did not seem to be central. If it is possible, I would like to have a greater explanation of why Senator Higgins wants to exclude blanket bogs and simply refer to raised bogs. She did say, through the Chair, that there were certain differences and I presume that is where the argument lies. I wonder if Senator Higgins could specify that and why there should be a distinct, separate treatment of blanket bogs.
