Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Future of the Maritime Area Regulatory Authority: Discussion

Ms Laura Brien:

The first one is being worked on at the moment and it is for the south coast, from Cork to Wexford. That item went out to public consultation and is now being refined, and the proposed DMAP will come back before the Oireachtas in the first quarter of next year. It will designate areas that are suitable for offshore renewable development. Subsequent to that, we will issue MACs only within the area that has been defined as part of that DMAP.
