I concur with all the other speakers. IS 465 is out of date and needs to be updated. The Oireachtas Joint Committee on Housing, Local Government and Heritage had specialists on pyrite, which is more than what the Department had. Specialists understand pyrite and understand the regulations. IS 465 is like putting the cart before the horse. We need to get this right. It needs to be up to date. Fully independent people, experts in their field and outside of the NSAI, need to do the review.
