Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

General Scheme of the Planning and Development Bill 2022: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. David Kelly:

It goes to the Minister indirectly. It first goes to the National Oversight and Audit Commission, NOAC, which is meant to review the reports and make recommendations to the Minister. Under the draft Bill, that will change. It will go to the OPR, which will assess reports and then make recommendations to the Minister to support the implementation of the regional strategies.
