I have finished that point. My second point is there is a clear risk, and we were told this during the pre-legislative scrutiny process, that if financial penalties are conceded by a planning authority, it will not prioritise dealing with that case or application because it will prioritise dealing with other applications in front of it to minimise future financial penalties. That point also needs to be considered.
