Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Infrastructure Provision and Residential Developments: Discussion

Mr. Conor O'Connell:

That goes to the very heart of what we are talking about in terms of a predictive model. If we are planning ahead for ten years' time, why is there the fear of stranded assets? Why is there a fear of redundant infrastructure if we are planning ahead for a ten-year period? We know we have a high population growth rate so let us plan for that and forward plan the infrastructure in that context. That is the type of model we would like to see into the future which, as Mr. Gleeson has outlined, is not favoured by the CRU.
