Some aspects do not seem to have been resolved at this point that are not necessarily small ones. I welcome the dropping of the term "curtilage"; it is a sensible thing. Perhaps the practical implications of vast hospital grounds were not realised.
Another issue the Garda Síochána raised regarding policing of the zones was the question of signage. Did the Department engage on that issue? How serious an issue does the Department think it is?
