Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Defective Block Scheme Regulations and Review of IS 465: Discussion

Mr. Kevin Kelly:

But just to explain to the Deputy, our future role is not a technical one but is more administrative. I do not know where the oversight comes in. We have used external assistance to date for that technical piece.

I will make a general comment on the resource piece. With the best will in the world and with the support of the Department, there is a very significant time lag now in getting resources into local authorities. There are many moving parts in this and we alluded in our paper to how we all collectively, everybody, must be very nimble on our feet to ensure we are delivering as good as we can for the affected homeowners.
