Mr. Noel Cunniffe:

I cannot comment on that but I do know that the phase 1 projects which have submitted for planning permission are some of the most comprehensive planning submissions that the State will have ever received. They are thousands and thousands of pages long. Making sure that the right level and competency of resourcing is there in State agencies to be able to adequately and robustly assess those is vital. That needs to be the number one priority for the State when it comes to phase one projects over the next 12 months.
