Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
National Planning Framework: Discussion
9:00 am
Fergus O'Dowd (Louth, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
I want to come back to the question that I asked about Drogheda. Two towns are designated in this plan, which are Newry and Dundalk, one of which is in the northern administration. Dundalk is in my county, and I have no issue with that. However, Drogheda, which is bigger than Dundalk, is not mentioned in that context. This Oireachtas committee could recommend that this plan would incorporate Newry, Dundalk and Drogheda as linear cities. How do we make sure that this happens? I accept the points that the Minister is making.
