For one to be legally operational in the future, I assume it will be put through the wringer by the Department before it gets the green light. How long is that process going to take? With every passing day and week, we are creating problems elsewhere because, as I said, it is a part of the whole cycle and it is a necessity.

I assume that if I wanted to open one in the morning, the Department would put me through the wringer and I would be very disappointed if it did not, based on what has just happened. How long is it going to take until we have somebody who is going to be legally licensed and given the green light to operate?
