Ms Claragh Mulhern:

That is what we are seeking to do. As Mr. Hogan stated, there are many other means. As these sites have permissions in place, they have gone through the planning process, which is the piece that is provided for in the draft legislation. Getting those permissions activated and built cannot be achieved by the legislation; it needs to be done through a variety of other means. The tax to encourage people to start developing sites that have permission is one such measure. There are many other measures the Government is currently considering and rolling out in terms of funding to encourage developments to be built out, such as the Croí Cónaithe cities fund, Project Tosaigh and many others.
