Unlocking Barriers to the Delivery of Housing: Discussion
2:00 am
Joe Cooney (Clare, Fine Gael)
Okay, it was an issue in my county. What I am asking on this issue is whether the witnesses think that type of legal action to be taken by a third party, which has no involvement in the development I am talking about and has taken a legal action against a development that has successfully gone through the full planning process, undermines trust in the planning system among developers and potential investors? Will it be a factor in decisions on future housing projects that might be considered? I think it is a big concern.
