Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Consultation on the Draft National Planning Framework (Resumed): Discussion

3:00 pm

Mr. George Hussey:

No, I do not have a figure in mind. Rather, it certainly ought to be more ambitious than the current numbers suggest. The current CSO data seems to suggest that, in fact, we are exceeding those targets in any event. For any objective to be ambitious, it should be a stretch from where we were rather than allowing us to fall back to some position which we might have been in maybe ten years ago, when there was a much lower level of overall development.
