This comes back to my original point. I have no knowledge of Coimisiún na Meán. I do not know if it has the capacity or capabilities to do this work. I do not know if it is interested in doing it or anything about it at all because all of that discussion happened at another committee - in-depth, as I understand - over a period of months. We have come full circle. I see that the media commission is going to be given the responsibility, perhaps through a public consultation, or maybe not - we do not know - on how it is going to draw together and come up with a system. Maybe applicants will fill in an online form or maybe they will have to get a stamped addressed envelope. Who knows? We have no knowledge of the function of Coimisiún na Meán, which means my concerns remain.
