I want to ask about the wind energy development guidelines. The most recent guidelines were published in 2006 and the technology has changed massively since then. The Department has been reviewing them for quite some time. There is no timeline for completion of the review. Is An Coimisiún Pleanála experiencing issues with making decisions on wind farm planning applications because of the lack of up-to-date modern guidelines?
