Is best practice being followed in the granting of planning permission in Cork? I have heard a retail park is being built on a bog in Ballyvolane which will mean that a local estate, Brookvale, will become more vulnerable to flooding as a result.

Given that there are problems there, are we taking enough steps in planning to ensure we will not make problems worse in the future?
