Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Modern Construction Methods: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Sean Downey:

MMC or off-site manufacturing offers a major advantage in regard to the programme and a potential advantage in regard to cost from the damp-proof course up. They do not influence. Someone building a factory unit, whether it is a two-deep panelling system, brings in everything from the damp-proof course up. Perhaps many of the challenges are the soft issues to be dealt with such as access to the site and getting planning and utilities such as Irish Water and ESB lined up.
