The urban development zones. As of three weeks ago, they had not decided whether they would proceed by means of separate legislation or by bringing it into this draft Bill by way of amendment. Does the Irish Planning Institute have a view on that? I do not want to open up a discussion on the land value sharing tax and the urban development zones, but would it be better to be in this draft Bill and to have it all clear? Is it possible for us to have a conversation about development contributions separate from the land value sharing tax on the basis of what the witnesses said? Would it not be better not only for them all to be in the one Bill, but for us to understand how they relate to each other rather than having separate Bills? Part of the purpose of bringing forward consolidated legislation is to get away from having multiple Acts.
