Jerry Buttimer: I missed Second Stage and wish to comment briefly on the Minister's introduction of the amendment. As was acknowledged by the Minister, I commend Deputy Kelly on his stewardship of the Bill. As the Leader of this House, I advise it is important to get this legislation passed and enacted as quickly as possible. It will benefit local economies, support local entrepreneurs who provide...

- Seanad: Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill 2016: Motions (11 Jul 2018)
Jerry Buttimer: I welcome the Minister of State. Since the framework's launch, we have had a discussion about the importance of planning and being able to prepare for the future.

In Cork we have the docklands to grow and develop the city. The one thing I share with the Tánaiste is our ambitions for Cork. We want to see-----
