============================================================

Rose Conway-Walsh (SF), Mayo

The crux of matter seems to be the auditing, showing the exact usage and the measurement issue. If we can prove to the Minister of State or Revenue, which I believe we can beyond any doubt whatsoever, the exact usage, the number of units and the exact costs and do absolute comparisons in the same way that is done elsewhere, can this scheme be applied retrospectively to those who have missed out on this scheme in recent months? That is where we need to home in. I can 100% provide that evidence to the Minister of State or Revenue, or I can get the businesses to supply it. Nobody is looking to avail of something that they are not entitled to or to abuse the system in any way. Everything is upfront and can be audited.
