In fairness, in Engineers Ireland's evidence to the housing committee almost a year ago, it made it clear that some of its members – I would argue most of them, but that is my interpretation – had a major concern about IS 465. That evidence was given in front of representatives of the National Standards Authority of Ireland. Is Mr. Owens concerned that it has not even issued interim guidance, considering that it has been sitting on the evidence for months? This evidence is from eminently qualified geologists of international standing, including petrographers.
