I have not had any such meetings. The Planning and Development (Strategic Infrastructure) Bill 2006 proposes changes to the planning system to reduce delays in decision-making relating to major infrastructure projects. In that context I welcome the initiative being introduced in the High Court to improve the management and prioritisation of these cases.
