Departmental Schemes
Seanad Éireann — 2025-12-09
============================================================

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

It is single one-off developments. That is where the focus should be. I will ask officials to look at this again and try to do a cost-benefit analysis on what it would cost the State if we allowed a small cohort who will have built and completed within the appropriate period but who, for whatever reason, missed out on the deadline for the application. They must be very annoyed and frustrated. They are taxpayers as well and a lot of that would be funding the scheme. I will undertake to do that.
