Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed)
Seanad Éireann — 2024-07-16
============================================================

Mark Wall (LAB), Industrial and Commercial Panel

I want to speak to amendments Nos. 71 and 83. Regarding amendment No. 71, this planning framework needs to take cognisance of the Gaeltacht Act 2012, which requires the Irish language rights to be considered when looking at the overall framework plan. For amendment No. 83, we would require that the Government present any draft or any new or revised national planning framework to the Houses of the Oireachtas and that it would not be published or take effect in the four weeks of that framework being approved by the Oireachtas.
