Mr President, I ask a further supplementary question. Given that the average size of a home is 200 square metres, isn’t it true that there could be up to 10 million square metres of foil insulation destined for landfill as a result of this debacle? Does the minister know, or will her department release, the carbon footprint of 10 million square metres of foil insulation? And, given that, how can this program even remotely be considered an environmental success?
