The second problem with Part V is the inclusion of the provision that 20% of all new developments should be set aside for social and affordable housing. I have seen application after application for planning permission to my local authority, including one for a 300 house development which was supposed to deliver 60 houses under the social and affordable housing provision. However, the development has not been built because a debate took place regarding when the application was made and what was meant by affordable or social housing. The application was referred to An Bord Pleanála when the local authority insisted the builder had to adhere to the 20% provision. However, the board has such a backlog of cases that we still await a reply. No house, therefore, has built over the past 18 months because of that provision.
