I will pick up on what Senator Higgins said. There was no indication of this in April. We call on the Minister of State to withdraw the amendments in respect of judicial reviews. An overall review of judicial reviews will happen in the autumn. The Minister of State withdrew one of the amendments in the Dáil related to judicial reviews. He needs to do so again here. I know the Government thinks it will speed up planning, but this will only make things worse and cause more delays, more confusion and more uncertainty. Why not put our efforts into establishing a stand-alone environmental court?
