Planning and Development Bill 2023: Report Stage (Resumed) and Final Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2024-09-25
============================================================

Darragh O'Brien (FF), Dublin Fingal

I thank the Senators. It is good to be back with them again today. A comment was made concerning rushing this legislation or there having been no consultation on it and this being an attack on democracy. I again put on the record of the House that this Bill was approved by the Government in December 2022, published in January 2023 and underwent widespread consultation and pre-legislative scrutiny in the Oireachtas joint committee-----
