In terms of the assertions that have been made, the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage has made itself available to the Oireachtas joint committee throughout this process. It is not correct to say the legislation is being rushed through. The draft NMPF was launched in November 2019 and officials were invited to appear before the Oireachtas joint committee on 25 March 2021 for a private briefing, as well as appearing before a public sitting of the joint committee for further scrutiny of the NMPF on 6 April. There was scrutiny by the Oireachtas joint committee. The assertion was that there was not.
