So they can go and use somebody else's water.

But the users like to be close to them.

So basically, we are really exposed because as a country, we have up to maybe 26, 27% of electricity be consumed by data centres.

You can't manage if you can't measure.

And the government is not measuring the level of water it's consuming.

It's not up to me or Martin to go around and measure how much water is going into the data centre.

It's not Ishka Aaron's job.

If I was investing in Ishka Aaron, I would tell them where is the water going before I'd give them another dime.

You'd imagine so.

So it should be accessible.

I do think there's a problem with Ishka Aaron here.

So 36% of the water is leaking, right?

It's not a massive decrease.

It is a decrease.

But like the Ishka Aaron got fined by the CRU 20 million euros for not achieving its objectives in terms of fixing those leaks.

And, you know, it's in my own town, in my own county, Bolivar hasn't had a proper water system for many months.

Schools have had to close.
