So, it is remaining as the centre of government to ensure that Dublin is given this priority.

I have introduced a Private Members' Bill on CPOs. I am not reinventing the wheel with it. The Law Reform Commission did a report on this a while ago. I have initiated it in terms of CPO reform. Mr. O'Reilly said that if there were tighter timelines for CPOs, it might make the process more efficient. Another recommendation from the Law Reform Commission - it is in the Bill - is about providing moneys up front. How important does Mr. O'Reilly think it is to reform the existing CPO laws we have to support local authorities and their CPO efforts?
