We are out of time, but we will come back to that matter. There is a weakening when it comes to the protection of structures. We will come back to it.

I will take the next slot. I want to go back to the national policy statements. These seem to be matched. A national planning statement will be accompanied by guidelines for local authorities regarding implementation. Will that assist in this? Has there been misinterpretation of guidelines or of the SPPRs derived from them? Has that been an issue in the past?
