Where a developer operates individual designated activities companies for each individual development, which is common if not the norm, and a company then fails, there is nobody to pursue in the context of planning enforcement. As site works are not covered by the building control amendment regulations, it is even more difficult. Ultimately, we are talking about court action. They are the case in point with respect to the developments I am talking about. Planning enforcement does not fix this issue. If it did, Deputy O'Callaghan and I would be involved in all sorts of planning enforcement. That is the problem. I think the Minister of State understands the point.
