Who will answer those questions for us then? For example, will the local authority have the go-to person to answer those questions if a planning application calls for building within a historical monument? Is it up to the local authority? Who will be the go-to person for me in Limerick so I can pick up the phone to call the local authority? Who will be responsible? Will I be going to the local authority who will then send me on to another department, which then becomes a recurring cost for everyone? I want to know who the go-to person will be and who will answer the question so that it does not take months and months to find an answer. I want to know who will have the determination and responsibility to answer our questions.
