Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (21 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: I appreciate the Minister of State is addressing the group but will he address specifically the idea that exempted developments will no longer be transparently available in the sense of being in primary legislation?

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (21 Feb 2024)

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (21 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: There may be totally unfounded fears here. That is my point. We could address an issue very easily by giving people information. If that is possible, let us do it. Then it can be dealt with before it leaves the Seanad.

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (22 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: I have literally just finished my remarks with the FAI and I hope to bring less ire to the discussion here. Given that I do not have my notes in front of me, my recollection of it is that the amendment refers to statutory undertakers, utilities-----

Public Accounts Committee: Business of Committee (22 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: I cannot comment about other local authorities but there have been occasions in Dublin city where very significant sites were delayed for a Part 8 planning process on the basis of, and I am trying to be as non-contentious as possible, a dispute over the nature of the make-up of the site. It would not necessarily only be about roads. It could be about the mixture of housing, the tenure, the...

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (21 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: It is always difficult speaking about a general provision in legislation and then starting to discuss a specific site. We are not discussing a specific proposal for Moore Street, though I accept that is a possible application of it. The term "surrounding context of the structure" is very broad. My concern is it probably does not give a defined enough application of what Deputy Ó Broin...

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (27 Feb 2024)

Paul McAuliffe: I join colleagues on these amendments. There is a strong argument that if these structures are no longer being used as a telephone kiosk they are in breach of the original purpose for which planning was granted. The idea that they would be repurposed into Wi-Fi hot spots or phone charging points, which is happening in a number of cases, is just a farce and undermines the reason they were...
