The wording 'carbon dioxide stream' is actually part of the bill and so is, as I said earlier, the carbon dioxide equivalent. I raise this issues because carbon dioxide is not going to be captured only as carbon dioxide; there are other additives to its equivalents that could be in it. This is really a dog of a bill. You actually said in your comments the other day:

The purpose of the London protocol is to make sure that we have a consistent and robust approach to protecting our marine environment in a range of circumstances but, in this instance, in circumstances where there is a transborder movement of carbon dioxide.

What did you mean by that statement?
