Mr. Philip Jones:

Senator Boyhan is not here, but he queried whether reports being provided by bodies such as the OPW and various others are available. In section 334(2)(a)(iii) the Bill provides, "any report prepared by or for the planning authority in relation to the application or request", be made available. That is covered in the Bill. If certain local authorities are not providing it, the Bill certainly makes it a requirement now. There is no issue there, in fairness to the Senator.
