Mr. Paul Hogan:

I ask colleagues to come in on this briefly as well because it is an area Mr. Ryan in particular has been working on from the local government perspective. An Bord Pleanála has been developing its system as well. Its systems are horrendously complex and they do take time when things are system-wide and you are integrating what has maybe been done separately 31 times. I am not talking about anywhere in particular.

It is more that that has been our experience of it. Covid-19 has been a very important acceleration for all of this and it is happening. I do not have the timelines or whatever to hand but we will expect to see much better systems for all users including developers, the public, officials, elected members, Deputies and Senators. Mr. Ryan and other colleagues may wish to add to that.
