Mr. John-Mark McCafferty:

What I say next comes from a background that informs what we do, our northern European counterparts show us how that might be done. The Netherlands is quite similar to Ireland in many ways but has a much higher population density. I would look at Denmark, the other Scandinavian countries and northern Germany regarding density, planning and the appropriateness of whether something should be co-ordinated at local authority level. Ireland has pretty small administrative units that are often tasked to do very large structural tasks and sometimes that is a challenge. We have, through the European Union, many good examples of integrated development. There are very good examples in Ireland of integrated development such as Adamstown and some of the stuff that has been done in the south and north docklands. There are indigenous examples and no shortage of examples elsewhere in northern Europe.
