Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
General Scheme of the Planning and Development (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill 2021
Mr. Eamonn Kelly:
Absolutely. There is some urgency in ensuring that we have a robust planning system in place generally and removing some of these steps in that regard. In the context of foreign direct investment, FDI, we have received queries in respect of ensuring that this is a backstop that is rare and that should not happen. We need something like this proposed legislation in place and it would be appreciated if we could get this progressed quickly.
