Yes. In response to Deputy McAuliffe's question, work is under way on the preparation of the regulations. The aim is to bring exempted developments into regulations. In our view, it is more appropriate that the principal of it be in the Bill and the detail set out in the regulations. The regulations will need Oireachtas approval. That might give assurance. It will broadly replicate what is in the current Act but there will be engagement with the Oireachtas on development of the regulations.
