If this is worthy of the term “strategy”, it is a Dublin growth strategy or greater Dublin area growth strategy but in terms of national strategy planning, it is not a strategy or a vision. It is reactive, responsive and demand-led. It is not saying what kind of country we want in 2040, 2050 and beyond, where we want people to live, where we want economic development or what the best spatial distribution of the population is at all. I am out of time but if there is a second round, I will come back in.
