As regards the funding that was spent, is there a time limit? I understand work was done. A number of public consultations were held and so on. Is there a point at which all that work becomes obsolete and has to start again? In other words, if this project is allowed to drift for another three, four or five years, will the whole thing have to be started again if the go-ahead is given at that stage to proceed with the project?
