In the case I referred to in west Cork, there was a delay of about four years in purchasing the land. The solicitors had sent in the contracts for the sale and it took four years before it got to the signature stage. That delay was not a result of a planning objection. There was no objection to planning on the coastal section, so it is the process I am talking about. The time it took for contracts to be signed was four years.
