Under section 31(1), where a regional assembly makes a regional spatial and economic strategy or revises same, it shall publish the relevant document within four weeks . The assembly has made the strategy or the revision. The work is done and everything that the Minister of State referenced in the context of consultation under section 29 has happened. That has all been done. That is all finished and complete and the strategy is made. Surely at the point where it is made, it should be ready - or almost ready - for publication, so why is there a four-week delay? What still needs to be done that requires a period of four weeks?
