These are minor amendments of a purely technical and drafting nature and amend the layout of the sections by changing the text from being presented as two separate paragraphs (b) and (c) to being presented as two subparagraphs under a single paragraph (b). They relate to sections 97 and 108 relating to the notification of a decision on a planning application or appeal and the requirement for the planning authority or An Coimisiún Pleanála, in issuing its planning application decision, to comply with any notification requirements surrounding an imperative reasons of overriding public interest, IROPI, decision under Part 6. The amendments do not change the intent but seek to bring clarity to the text. Further, the amendments add a missing reference to section 200(8)(b) which is also an IROPI notification requirement.
