Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
General Scheme of the Planning and Development Bill 2022: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Gavin Lawlor:
One final point I will make, in order that the committee will not think that there is any conflict in what we are saying, is that I am talking about the principle of land use which is very different from development management.
They are two different things and there should be flexibility in development management throughout the country because there are different circumstances. The principle of land use planning and what can be done in certain zonings should be reasonably universal.
