Joint Oireachtas Committee on Environment, Culture and the Gaeltacht

EU Scrutiny Report and Future Priorities and Challenges: Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government

10:45 am

Mr. John McCarthy:

That was actually my final comment that we will have to engage with the Department of Communications, Energy and Natural Resources because whatever policy it decides to put in place it will, ultimately, fall to be delivered through the planning gain issue and will fall to be dealt with through the planning process, therefore, we will have to engage closely with that Department.
