Mr. Colm Hayes:

It is exactly as I said at the outset. Over the next three months, which is when Deputy Fitzmaurice is speaking about, we see ourselves delivering the type of licences we spoke about earlier in the year, which in volume terms will deliver 4,500 for this year. This means approximately 100 licences a week. There will be weeks when it is up and a little bit down but if we can average at around this, we will be well on the way to delivering the overall 4,500 target for this year. This is our target and we are absolutely committed to it. I assure the Deputy there is no shortage of effort.

The purpose of the dashboard is to measure output. We are fully transparent on output on a weekly basis. We circulate it to the committee each week. It is there to monitor and measure. We are committed to doing this. We did it last week and we expect to do something broadly similar this week. We are starting to see things come through that indicate to us that June will be the best month of the year. All of this combined will lead us to where we want to be. The Deputy will have the dashboard every week to monitor this and we look forward to engaging with him as it progresses.
