The legislation clearly stipulates the applicant must name the location of the site. How can my question be interpreted as asking the Department to depart from the legislation? The legislation states the location must be named. What does the Department interpret that to be? Is it the exact location, such as the district electoral division, DED, the townland or the general bay? I am not asking the Department to depart from legislation. I want it to give me its understanding of what the legislation requires.
