I welcome the witnesses. I want to come back to a few points that others have raised. I sought the terms of reference and An Bord Pleanála sent them to me. The first paragraph states that recent media reports have raised a number of matters relating to conflicts of interest which have potentially arisen in decisions on particular case types, certain other matters relating to the operation of two-person boards, and general procedures relating to the allocation of case files and amendments to inspectors' reports. Will the witnesses clarify what case types are concerned? I know it includes mobile phone masts. Does it include SHDs or other particular case types?
