I very much appreciate the Senator's sentiments he expressed regarding the importance of timing. I will take every opportunity to convey that and the other comments made by him today to the Minister. I have no doubt he will also continue to engage directly with the Minister on this very important issue. I appreciate that it is vitally important to his constituents that they have this type of information and an update on timing.The Government is committed to learning the lessons of Storm Éowyn. As I said, the legislation and the accompanying resilience plan are being progressed as a matter of priority, in keeping with the programme for Government commitments to prioritise investment in our electricity grid. I will, of course, pass the Senator's comments directly to the Minister.
