Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
General Scheme of the Planning and Development Bill 2022: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. David Minton:
There is a requirement to report back to each of the local authorities. I take Mr. Killian's point. This is a systems piece. What we are seeing in the legislation is a strengthening of the family of local and regional government within the piece. That communication can certainly be addressed as part of it. The assemblies and their members are always very keen to try to find those communication loops with our local authorities. This legislation will strengthen the connectivity between local and regional levels. That can only be a positive. The point is well made, however.
