Mr. Niall Byrne:

In an ideal world, and it would very much be the ideal world, a mediation case could be turned around in approximately four weeks. Whether that is achievable under the provisions we have is debatable. Ideally it would be good to be able to say to people to come to the RTB with their dispute and to try mediation in the first instance, and to be in a position to offer a mediation service with that kind of turnaround time. I believe everyone would agree that this would be ideal.

I will just make the point, however-----
