I thank the Minister for the clarification. What would it mean in practical terms for the delivery of housing?

I am aware of 30 housing projects in Mayo that are going through the four-stage process. That might sound promising on the face of it, but we know that it usually takes years for projects to get on site and under construction. Will the changes enable Mayo County Council to conduct a single preliminary assessment or business case in respect of all projects brought forward in a year?
