That would be useful for the committee in seeing the outliers on the long end and the short end. The officials will have to appreciate if a developer is waiting up to 30 weeks on a pre-connection and, subsequently, up to 30 on a connection, it is more than a year where nothing is happening on the site. That is not even allowing for the planning permission that could go to judicial review. That could be two years. A developer could be caught three years between Irish Water and planning with nothing happening on the site. That is not acceptable.
