The matter raised by the Deputy relates to the obligation of ESB to notify the European Commission of the proposed joint venture in accordance with Council Regulation (EC) No. 139/2004 of 20 January 2004 on the control of concentrations between undertakings (the Merger Regulation) and EU Commission implementing regulations. This is a corporate issue between the ESB and the European Commission and I therefore have no function in this matter.
