Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

General Scheme of the Planning and Development Bill 2022: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Rachel Minch:

This was one of the questions that was going to be referred to the Court of Justice. I refer to what was the scope of national environmental law and if it covered issues concerning development plans and material contraventions, and these kinds of broader planning questions. One of the issues here is that this point is possibly going to be reopened and we might find ourselves going back to the European Court or in litigation over what this means.
