Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Consultation on the Draft National Planning Framework: Discussion

1:30 pm

Ms Karen Kenny:

In terms of the strategy, there has been significant engagement with our colleagues in the Department of Transport about more sustainable forms of development that would integrate compact settlement and transport so there is an increased focus on transport-orientated development. We have integrated a lot of the work being done in the Department of Transport's climate unit regarding sustainable mobility so all of that will affect the embodied carbon of future development in addition to the NPOs that are specifically addressed in chapter 9.
