Through the Bill, we are seeking to improve that process and make it more effective across the board. Under the section relating to licensable activities, I see reference to application to the Minister for a licence. How long will it take for a licence to be issued when the Bill is enacted and there is a fully resourced heritage, monuments and archaeological department?
