Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
General Scheme of the Planning and Development and Foreshore (Amendment Bill) 2022: Discussion
Mr. Gavin Lawlor:
Honestly yes, although that is more of a personal opinion than an IPI position.
It is very difficult to represent that opinion through the whole of the Irish Planning Institute, IPI. Personally, I would agree with the Chairman that confidence has been knocked and that there is a challenge in attracting talented people to the board but that is what we need to do. We need to have a diverse, talented board in place with people who have significant expertise and experience, are judicious and have significant integrity. That is ideally what we want to do.
