Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Strategic Housing Development Review: Discussion
Mr. Joe Corr:
I thank him for that because for a long time we have been held responsible for things that were not within our power. I am happy to hear him say that. Deputy Ó Broin referred to a review of the decisions and so on. I refer back to my earlier comments to the previous representatives. Development teams established at local authority level can do this. They can carry out that function. We need to take a serious look at the adequate resourcing of local authorities. I will leave it there.
