Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill 2025: Committee and Remaining Stages
Dail Éireann — 2025-07-09
============================================================

James Browne (FF), Wexford

I am very strongly of the view that the operation and procedures of the superior courts is a matter for the Judiciary of the superior courts. It would be inappropriate for the Oireachtas to set down statutory timelines for the courts. The courts need to be able to manage their lists in the manner they see fit. That is my personal opinion and my position as an officeholder.
