Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed)

Just to be clear, we supported the legislation because it was attempting to do what the committee wanted it to do. My point now, however, is that this portion of the section does not work and therefore is not good. The intention behind it is absolutely correct. All I ask is that section 8(3) and (4) are looked at between now and the final passage of the Bill. I am not asking the Minister of State to give any commitments or to ask his officials to produce a report, but it makes no sense to have something in the Bill that does not work.
