I move amendment No. 647:

In page 212, between lines 19 and 20, to insert the following: “(10) Notwithstanding any other enactment, where an application for permission for residential development situated in a Limistéar Pleanála Teanga Gaeltachta or a Baile Seirbhíse Gaeltachta in the Gaeltacht is made by an applicant who is competent in the Irish language, the applicant shall be treated as having a local housing need and that application shall be treated favourably.”.
