Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Review and Consolidation of Planning Legislation: Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage (Resumed)

Mr. Colin Ryan:

As Ms Graham said, there are exemption rules that are going through the process at the moment. They deal, first of all, with domestic cases to increase the capability for domestic housing to be exempt for solar projects. In regard to community, industrial and commercial activities, it is effectively the roof space that can be utilised for exempted purposes, subject to certain rules. I do not have the details, but I think it involves setback.
