Ms Eileen Creedon:
It takes a while for the impact to reach us because we deal with the judicial reviews on refused applications. In the past year it has become busier because the throughputs sped up somewhat. It will take a while to see the impact of the new legislation and the measures coming through. If the legislation becomes more streamlined and results in fewer challenges it will result in a decrease in our work but it is too early to assess that now.
