There are two major crises in Ireland. There is the housing crisis and the infrastructural crisis. In many ways they seem to be dragging to a close in terms of delivery. We have seen a collapse in the number of houses being built, a reduction in the number of planning applications being submitted, and so many infrastructure projects are taking so long to be developed. Would the witnesses be able to tell me what is the average length of time it takes for a housing application to be processed by An Coimisiún Pleanála and the average length of time it takes an infrastructural project to be processed?
