Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

Our planning system is there to vindicate citizens' rights and I have always respected that. It is the right of our citizens to use the planning system. That can never be tied to the provision of funding to any organisation and I would never advocate that. In terms of the broader debate, I had an interesting exchange yesterday with Deputy Kelly on the need to consistently look at our planning frameworks to make sure they are efficient, effective and expedient and that they can facilitate different perspectives much more effectively than is currently the case.
