The table sets out the number of estates for which the planning permission expired more than 2 years ago which have not yet been taken in charge, and the number of those estates proposed to be taken in charge in 2006, based on returns supplied by local authorities to my Department. As regards action being taken to execute the taking in charge, I refer the Deputy to my reply to Question No. 227 on 4th October 2006.
