There will have to be a wider Government discussion about that. We have seen how a similar issue emerged with permission relating to the A5 in the North. There has not been extensive discussion around that in the Government. If a growing risk emerges where we cannot deliver infrastructure that everyone agrees on because of a particular piece of legislation, it will have to be assessed. Ultimately, my objective is to drive delivery of critical infrastructure, which encompasses energy policy, transport policy, roads and public transport as well as new homes. There would have to be a discussion on that. Obviously, there is a lot of jurisprudence on it, but if it emerges as a serious risk, it would have to be assessed.
