What happens to the other £3.5 million, if you expect—

Okay. What lessons have been learned from that process of lending to Circularity Scotland? Was the internal market act not previously seen as a risk, and is it seen as a risk now? Has anything changed in the bank when you look at potential investments?

You said that the bank has been going for three years. Scottish ministers were meant to set up an advisory board when the bank was created, but there is no sign of that yet. Do you have any more information about when that advisory board will be created and what its role and function will be?

Do you anticipate trying to borrow more from the Scottish Government for the large capital project that you obviously have? It is often said that you are sitting on cash reserves. I do not know how much they are, but could they be used?

So, when there is a call for you to use more of your cash reserves, you would defend vigorously the position that you have taken.

With inflation still high, do you anticipate large increases this year? Obviously, water bills go out at the same time as council tax bills, which are going to be frozen. Do you anticipate that the water charges will be frozen or is that just unrealistic?

Thank you. I have more questions, but I think that we are out of time.

Cabinet secretary, you mentioned that the free allocation for aviation will be phased out over the coming years. What impact will that have on the aviation industry?

On the pricing, we have been told that the £97 million original contract price was understated and that it should have been a lot more, but given that FMEL’s bid was the most expensive one, how could that be?

I imagine that part of the commissioning process will involve the ship running on LNG. You will have to prove that it works.
