Planning and Development (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill 2022: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2022-05-31
============================================================

Alice-Mary Higgins (IND), National University of Ireland

I thank the Minister for the clarification because it read as a conflict. That is why I had not sought to remove section 3(a) and section 3(b). Perhaps the Minister will confirm if it is the case that the mechanisms in respect of substitute consent will not be applied in regard to the unauthorised development of land where an EIA or appropriate assessment is required, or is determined to be required. If he could confirm that, it would allow me to withdraw the amendment.
