Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation Dail Éireann — 2025-02-20 ============================================================ Helen McEntee (FG), Meath East Apologies, in north Kildare. I think we share similar challenges within our counties as well, especially with our growing population, young population and proximity to Dublin. I assure the Deputy this Government is absolutely committed to ensuring we invest in north Kildare in communities where there is that growth and increase in population. We are committed through the expansion of the national development plan and the national planning framework, which we will be sending to the local authorities soon and to which we expect them to respond, to be able to increase our response to this demand. I refer to not just looking at housing supply but to investments in schools, in infrastructure and in our roads. North Kildare will be supported to do just that. --- Source: Houses of the Oireachtas.
