Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

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

Mr. Robin Mandal:

I wish to pick up one other thing regarding that point, the point made by Mr. Heneghan and the point made by Ms Kimber. There may be an interim stage or an interim process within the new commission. At the moment, An Bord Pleanála has to take every appeal de novoas if no planning application had been made. It is a hell of a lot of work. It would be really nice if there were a halfway house for non-contentious appeals. To everybody, there is no such thing as a non-contentious appeal.
