Ms Siobh?n Byrne:
That depends on the type of application. If it is a renewal for a child, in respect of which it is just a consent form we require, the documentation is uploaded within five days. If it is a first-time application, because that is a longer process, a lot more documentation comes in. Those applications are streamlined on the way in so that we can meet our target time for renewals and then, separately, our target time for first-time applications.
