Well, we will note that in the transcript here and see whether that is true. In terms of the CPO process, you have given us the figures of 93 per cent already in public ownership, I think, and 7 per cent still remaining. What is happening about progressing the CPO process with those and the other issues of land assembly below 7 per cent still to be obtained?

• Question by: Bob Blackman
• Meeting date: 11 October 2006

You have given percentages. How many jobs overall are we talking about here?

• Question by: Bob Blackman
• Meeting date: 11 October 2006

Yes, but we are still talking about a large number of jobs that are under threat, potentially, if relocation does not take place.

• Question by: Bob Blackman
• Meeting date: 11 October 2006

You have said 7 per cent of the land. How many land owners are you still negotiating with?

• Question by: Bob Blackman
• Meeting date: 11 October 2006

Have we satisfactorily got a position whereby all of those people are being re-sited if they choose to do so?

• Question by: Bob Blackman
• Meeting date: 11 October 2006

How many landowners are there?

Fine. Obviously this is a crucial phase of the whole project. How confident are you that it will be delivered on time?

• Question by: Bob Blackman
• Meeting date: 11 October 2006

I think the key issue is, are we going to have a long drawn-out process through the whole CPO process before we get to the final 100 per cent?

• Question by: Bob Blackman
• Meeting date: 11 October 2006

Including the tunnelling?

• Question by: Bob Blackman
• Meeting date: 11 October 2006

Can we just come back to the first project of laying the power lines, and I will come on to the CPO process in a minute? Is the project going according to budget?
