Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

General Scheme of the Affordable Housing Bill 2020 (Resumed): Land Development Agency

Mr. John Coleman:

The reality is that there is risk in everything we do. There are 15, 20, or 25 risks in every development we have. When working with a local authority site, is one of those 25 risks whether section 183 will not go one's way? Yes, it is. Notwithstanding what one does, that is a fact. Regardless of the way it bounces, we will work with local authorities to try to deal with their concerns either way, whether that provision is there or not. We will continue to work with them. We always have done and that is the way we will continue.
