Committee on Infrastructure and National Development Plan Delivery

IBEC Report on Infrastructure Ambition for a Competitive, Productive and Resilient Economy: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Gerard Brady:

We need more planners. One of the issues we have is that where we get more planners in one part of the system, it is taking them away from other parts that need them. We have seen progress on this recently regarding work permits for planners. We have also seen progress on the courts. These are all things that are recognised but they will need more resources in the coming years as we scale up the new NDP in particular. We will have more projects coming into fruition and we will need more capacity throughout the public system to be able to deal with them.
