Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
General Scheme of the Planning and Development Bill 2022: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. John Sheahan:
It is very difficult to do that. We found social media is a better way of getting feedback on plans. When we put plans and maps into the public library or post office nobody bothers to look at them. We place advertisements in the newspapers but people predominantly breeze over them. The only time we get public engagement is when we have made a mistake and we have to rectify it. We will be asked how we let that happen.
