Ms Mary Hurley:
On the process for projects over €6 million, that can be a three-stage process or a two-stage process. We work with local authorities to run those processes together. The timeframe for that is generally 59 weeks. We have seen in Wicklow, for example, projects going from inception to being on site in 43 weeks, so we do try to work the four stages together.
