While I believe this proposal has merit, in the circumstances and given the timeframe, I suggest the proposed amendment would be more appropriately examined in greater detail as part of the ongoing review of the Planning and Development Act 2000. With the Deputy's permission, if he provides me with some background detail and outlines his thinking on the amendment, I will have the matter formally included in the planning review. There is merit in it but we would need to tease it out further as part of that planning review, if that is okay.
