To go back to the Cathaoirleach, Deputy Leddin's point, it is an issue that has been raised in the committee before.

Is Mr. Regan saying that matters like the mandate of GNI at this stage; the expansion of the gas network; increasing islanded data centres; gas boilers being installed, including by the State; and the expansion of the gas network are being considered in the Department in different forms? Are they being considered in terms of the European directive, the trilogues that are going on, or the range of strategies and policies being prepared by the Department? Would Mr. Regan have an indicative timeframe or sequencing for when we might be able to get our teeth into some of those matters within these Houses?
