Darren O'Rourke: I thank the Minister for his opening statement. I want to ask about the policy relating to data centres. I have listened to the exchanges so far.

Darren O'Rourke: I know we are tight for time but I want to touch on the issue of concrete and I have listened to the Minister's comments on it so far. I hear a lot from the sector that there are new obligations and new levies but that the developed infrastructure is not there to support them to recycle or reuse construction materials. Does the Minister recognise this as a problem and a challenge and what...
