Density in city centres probably comes under No. 24, living city, urban regenerations and town centres.

A review of the distribution of the rental accommodation scheme, RAS, shared services supplement could potentially come under No. 3, affordability. Perhaps it is only included in the briefing. I wish to understand a bit better, however, about how RAS rent comes into each local authority then goes to Limerick County Council where it is put into a shared services pot, and how that is fairly reflected in different local authorities which will have contributed significantly.

I am not sure if, perhaps, a review of the planning enforcement process and backlogs in local authorities comes in under No. 14 or No. 15. It is not really the planning regulator but perhaps it is No. 15 instead. It is not really funding either. I would like to get a handle on how local authorities go through planning enforcements when they get reports, what different local authorities have backlogs, how they can be resolved and if there is best practice that can be shared from one local authority to another.
