The schedule of works for scheme housing, even if it is only ten or 15 houses, is important in terms of when public areas, roads, footpaths, open spaces and so on will be completed. The scheduling of works is an important component that comes out from the phasing plan. I thank the Minister of State for that answer.

Second, does section 165 allow a planning authority to insist on the delivery of certain amenities, infrastructure or public space components up front or as part of the first phase, for example? Before the Minister of State tells me section 165(3) allows for this in terms of conditions, I do not think it is explicitly clear the conditions would allow that to be done.
