I wish to raise the matter of the Housing for All document and the commitments contained therein. A section of the document refers to a planning reform Bill that may come before the House. I am particularly conscious of a proposal I put forward earlier this year, the purpose of which was to find a means by which a time limit on the decision-making process of An Bord Pleanála would be put on a statutory basis. Can the Tánaiste confirm that such a time limit will be a part of the proposal that is brought before the Dáil by the Government to address this and other issues which are creating a logjam in adequate planning that could provide adequate housing?
