The question I was asking related to how the draft directions, as detailed in this section, will interact with section 35. Are they stand-alone, will they become implemented once the Minister lays them or will they then spill into the expedited amendment procedure in section 35? I do not want to get into section 35 now but I am trying to work out whether, if a draft direction is issued under this section and laid before the Houses of the Oireachtas, that is it and that will then become part of the regional spatial and economic strategy, or whether that will rest on the functioning of subsequent sections.
