My second question relates to height. The previous Government's decision to allow height strategies to be set aside has had an impact. I will outline an example. Santry and Ballymun sit very close to each other. One will benefit from a metro scheme but the other will not. However, all of the large-scale development over the past 12 to 24 months has been in Santry. That is because the height strategy has allowed development to take place where developers wanted it, rather than where councillors and officials might prefer to be. What is Mr. Cussen's view on the height strategy? Has the decision to set it aside benefited planning or does it need to be revisited?
