In the context of the review which the Minister has told us on a number of occasions is under way will he also have a look at the liaison between local authorities and his Department, because the implication of the Minister's earlier reply was that the delays boil down basically to the question of multiple ownership and that would not be quite accurate. Is the Minister aware that, for the last six to seven months, a CPO in his Department is being delayed purely on the basis of small technicalities? I am talking about Portland Place. Therefore it would appear that all of the delays do not boil down to multi-owner situations.

Not all, but it is a problem in the Dublin area. If the Deputy will give me some particulars on the specific one about which he is talking I will have it looked at.

I did, and the Minister courteously acknowledged it, but my point is that when the Minister is reviewing this aspect he should examine the liaison between his Department and local authorities.

Question No. 17.

I will have the matter investigated in an effort to hasten the whole procedural aspect.

Might I ask the Minister——

I am calling Question No. 17.
