I will come back on that. It is still my read of section 45 that it gives significant power to An Bord Pleanála. To be honest, I thought this was one of the pieces that was going to be substantially amended between Second Stage and Committee Stage. I will again raise a concern about the potential for unintended consequences. I suggest the Minister consider the various perspectives that have been raised at the committee. I also restate that on Report Stage we may table an amendment following consultation with colleagues.
