Mr. John Conlon:
I understand it is a very difficult message to convey that each of these stages takes quite some time. The first stage, the development and preliminary design stage, involves a huge amount of work across a huge number of areas, including topographical work, hydrological work, hydraulic analysis and extensive environmental assessments, which do take time and often have to be carried out on a seasonal basis. Time is the issue here. It does take time.
