Ceisteanna ar Reachtaíocht a Gealladh - Questions on Promised Legislation
Dail Éireann — 2022-02-09
============================================================

Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

On the overall point about delays in planning, the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage, in consort with the Attorney General, is having a more fundamental and very detailed comprehensive look at the entire planning code with a view to providing legislative proposals whereby a project that would normally take a number of years could be undertaken in one year. We acknowledge that the planning code is very complicated, difficult and challenging. Given the massive infrastructural programme that everybody wants, and the massive housing programme we need, we need to be more streamlined in how we conduct that business.
