Ms Carol Baxter:
The Department of Justice has been working to a target of six months processing for first instance and six months for second instance, and it had achieved quite a lot of progress on that. Obviously, the very high numbers have now delayed that, but typically the process takes a couple of years now. That Department is working hard to come back to the six-month period.
