I have a question for the representatives of Property Industry Ireland. In the annexe to their opening statement, they talk about wanting An Bord Pleanála to retain its powers to grant permission for developments that may materially contravene development plan policy or objectives. In the rest of their contribution, they have been talking about the importance of certainty and reducing risk. If this was retained, is this not a measure that would continue to increase uncertainty and risk?
