I will ask Ms Buckley to comment as well. The Irish Planning Institute was before the committee recently. The level of spotlight and scrutiny on planners and the planning system might lead some people to ask why they would go into that line of work. There is a level of criticism and public spotlight on the area and the entire planning system is cast in a bad light when we know the vast majority of people working in the planning system are good. It is something that occurred to me.
