Mr. Gavin Lawlor:

There is digital planning in place now. Anybody who has participated in it knows it is brilliant, to be blunt. You only have to produce one digital copy and upload it. There is a limit on the size of the document, which can be a bit of a frustration. You might have to break bigger documents down into smaller parts. It is brilliantly simple to achieve.

Once the planning application is uploaded, it is available as a searchable PDF. All the technology is there. There is no reason it cannot be done.
