Public Accounts Committee

2018 Financial Statements of An Bord Pleanála

9:00 am

Mr. Terry Sheridan:

It is there since 2000. As Deputy Kelly referred to earlier, during his term as the Minister in the Department in the Custom House, he initiated a review of the operations of An Bord Pleanála. One of the recommendations was that the appointment process for board members be changed. This would require primary legislation.
