Someone who goes back for an extension would not be restricted, but instead of five years it would be three years. The point is that would shorten that timeframe and the timeframe for permission for any application that goes to a local authority. That could involve a large commercial facility or a large housing development, or whatever the case may be. The Deputy's amendment sets the default to three years as opposed to five years right the way through.
