The DAA is seeking permission to increase the limit to 40 million, potentially in two years’ time. Building will take another three years. It depends on whether Fingal County Council decides that the DAA can have a cap of 40 million as soon as it grants the permission or only after the DAA has completed the work. With two years needed for the planning application and a further three years to build, that means the 40 million cap will only become permissible from December 2028 or thereabouts.
