I propose to take Questions Nos. 475 and 476 together.
At the end of June 2009, An Bord Pleanála had 1,844 cases on hand, a decrease of 36% compared to 2,875 for the same period in 2008. The specific information sought in relation to 2009 is set out in the following table.
> 6 months | > 8 months | > 10 months | > 12 months | |
Appeals on hands (as at 6th July, 2009): | 198 | 107 | 67 | 43 |
Information in relation to the years 2006, 2007 and 2008 is being compiled and will be forwarded to the Deputy as soon as possible.
