Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Review of National Planning Framework and Climate Targets: Discussion
Ms Anne Marie O'Connor:
For the residential zoned land tax, it is zoned serviced land. In terms of zoning, when we are looking at it, we are looking at land that is both serviced and serviceable within the plan period so that it can be built on. What we need to move to is very much a focus on the delivery of housing rather than just assuming that if we zone an inordinate amount of land then at least some of it will be developed, possibly in the wrong places.
