Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Review of National Planning Framework and Climate Targets: Discussion

Ms Anne Marie O'Connor:

To clarify the record, I said the housing targets across the development plans average out at 46,000 per annum but there is vastly significantly more land zoned than this. It is difficult to quantify at present because sometimes we are not comparing apples with apples. I do not want to give a figure because it could be misleading. It is certainly well within the range of 160% or 170% of that.
