Committee on Infrastructure and National Development Plan Delivery

Role, Responsibilities and Processes of An Coimisiún Pleanála and Office of the Planning Regulator: Discussion

2:00 am

Mr. Peter Mullan:

I am very happy to answer this. Perhaps there has been a minor misunderstanding. In respect of this year to date, we are at 50% statutory compliance. In respect of this month to date, we are at 62%. We are working to achieve 85% to 90% compliance by the end of the year. With regard to the response to the earlier question on whether we considered we had sufficient resources at present, if we look at decision-making and the number of decisions we make, we hit a high in May 2023 with a caseload of 3,600 cases. We are now down to approximately 1,300 cases. It has consistently decreased month on month over the two-year period.
