Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill 2025: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2025-07-15
============================================================

Christopher O'Sullivan (FF), Cork South-West

The Minister of State, Deputy John Cummins, already outlined in great detail why these amendments cannot be accepted. I am satisfied with the existing requirements in Part 3 of the Act of 2024 that relate to zoning and the requirements in Part 7 of the Act of 2024 that relate to the housing strategy. The matter raised is adequately covered in the Act of 2024 and therefore I cannot accept the amendments.
