Vote 34 - Housing, Local Government and Heritage (14 Jul 2022) Brian Stanley: If Mr. Walsh finds that they are not, perhaps he might inform us.

Vote 34 - Housing, Local Government and Heritage (14 Jul 2022) Brian Stanley: I have a question for the Department before we wrap up. Yesterday, the Planning and Development, Maritime and Valuation (Amendment) Bill 2022 went through Dáil Éireann. An amendment was proposed to be put in by the Government to allow An Bord Pleanála to change a decision after it was challenged by a judicial review. Is that correct? Was this the intention of the amendment?...

Vote 34 - Housing, Local Government and Heritage (14 Jul 2022) Brian Stanley: In relation to what was mentioned earlier, the phrase "having regard" has taxed us plenty over the years, such as in the case of "having regard" at local authority level. We would hear that a lot.

I thank the officials of An Bord Pleanála. I want to thank the Comptroller and Auditor General, Mr. Seamus McCarthy, Ms Henry and their staff for the work that...

Brian Stanley: I note that a number of recommendations we have made have been accepted. Clearly, lessons have to be learned from this.

Brian Stanley: I want to make sure the Deputy has full information in regard to that record. During the engagement on 16 June, during Deputy Carthy's contribution, the chief officer stated that claims continue to come in during the moratorium.
