The Minister of State is taking what I am trying to do here in the spirit it is intended, which is to bring transport, walkability and active transport into the planning system as best we can. I am happy with the discussion on those amendments.

My last amendment is No. 1188, which relates to Schedule 4 - "reasons for refusal of permission that excludes compensation". Section 390 1.(g) refers to:

any existing or prospective deficiency in any infrastructure capacity which would be required to facilitate the proposed development.

Does "infrastructure capacity" include public transport?
