Water Environment (Abstractions and Associated Impoundments) Bill 2022: Committee Stage (Resumed)
Seanad Éireann — 2022-11-22
============================================================

Malcolm Noonan (GP), Carlow-Kilkenny

Section 23(2)(b)(v) provides for the information included in annex IV of the EIA directive by reference to the transposing legislation, namely, the 2001 planning and development regulations. Where any change is made to the EIA directive requirements, the 2001 regulations will also be updated so that the reference in the Bill remains valid and up to date. The Department is satisfied that all relevant aspects of the EIA directive are addressed in the Bill. I will not accept the amendment.
