No, Mr. Walsh is on the same narrative as he was on last year which unfortunately for me means he is learning nothing to come in and say the same thing this year when he has a 300% increase in legal fees. It is up to the courts to interpret Mr. Walsh's mistakes. What is wrong here with An Bord Pleanála is gross negligence. If it was in the private sector somebody would be sacked. Who has lost his or her job because of this? Who has been reprimanded to the extent that we could justify wasting, squandering €8.2 million of taxpayers' money? Who has Mr. Walsh sanctioned?
