I thank the Minister for his answer. Minister, you spoke about the recent fish kills. The concerns that people have around these issues are about whether NIEA takes it seriously or has the resource to do something about it. I have had many complaints about it being maybe two days after the report of a fish kill before somebody comes out to look at it. That is not good for anybody. Minister, can you confirm that you are content that NIEA has the powers but, perhaps, does not have the resources?
