Mr. Paul Hogan:

I might bring in my colleagues, Ms Jones and Mr. Ryan, at this point. Very broadly, it is important to say that there has been no diminution in public participation processes or timelines. Large elements of the current Act are carried forward, in particular with regard to public participation. Those processes have been enhanced in recent times as a result of the experience of Covid, with the ability to do more things online and interactively. E-planning means that people can engage with processes remotely. There is a recognition of technological improvement and the strengthening of existing processes.

Likewise, it is very important that we clarify some of the aspects of judicial review. I might ask Ms Jones to respond on that in a moment but, first, I ask Mr. Ryan to respond to the question about the mid-term review.
