Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

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

Mr. Paul Hogan:

Yes, and the shift towards clarity and the shift towards longer arcs of time are part of that. We are still operating a system that involves planning applications, planning permission, an appeal stage and enforcement in the same way. All those things - plan-making, enforcement and dealing with planning applications - were considered as part of this review in respect of current and imminent requirements, so the numbers set out in that will get us a long way towards, if not all the way towards, what needs to be done.
