Yes, that is clear.
I have a question for the Irish Planning Institute. In bullet point 1.6 recent IPI research was mentioned. Can the institute make that research available to the committee as it would help us with our deliberations? At the end of the page, under bullet point 1.9, mention is made that a small but significant number of large multi-unit housing developments were under appeal. How many housing developments are under appeal? Can we have more information on the matter?
Finally, I am interested in hearing the witnesses' comments on the environmental impact assessment part of the heads of the Bill and on the impact of the potential reduction in third-party involvement in the planning process, appeals and oral hearings.
