Planning and Development Bill 2023: Report Stage
Dail Éireann — 2024-06-11
============================================================

Eoin Ó Broin (SF), Dublin Mid-West

I thank the Minister for his replies and clarification. All I ask with respect to the regulations and guidance for authorities utilising newspapers as per amendment No. 13 is to make sure that in those regulations publications that have the maximum coverage, especially in those areas where residents will have the greatest level of impact, are advised on or used as best as possible.
With respect to the definition of "statutory undertaker" on page 38, as read by the Minister, that does not just include primary contractors, for example. It could include subcontractors or a range of others. There would be no limitation on that. It would ultimately be a matter for a Minister or Commissioner of Public Works.
