Covid-19 (Local Government): Statements
Dail Éireann — 2020-05-27
============================================================

John Paul Phelan (FG), Carlow-Kilkenny

I must ask the Minister, Deputy Eoghan Murphy, to respond directly to the Deputy. I have no responsibility on housing. I understand the point being made, and the Deputy mentioned a local authority in another jurisdiction. As I understand it, county and city development plans are another mechanism by which local authorities can set out the criteria under which planning applications should be judged. We are all familiar with them. I do not know what the local development plan in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown says on the issue of co-living. I acknowledge the Deputy's comments on the statutory instrument from 2018.
I will ask the Minister, Deputy Eoghan Murphy, to respond directly to the Deputy.
