Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Implementing Housing for All: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Sonya Kavanagh:

I would not have thought so. It is a complex process that requires a fair deal of consultation and advertisement, etc., to make sure one is putting information out there about what one will compulsorily purchase. I cannot imagine many shortcuts that would be available within the process itself. We are building up an expertise within the teams that are using that. It is very helpful that the same teams are repeating the process over and over again because they are building up a set of expertise within our local authorities. Heretofore, it would not have been used as often. Off the top of my head, I could not imagine that there would be many elements of it that we could circumvent or shortcut.
