Topical Issue Debate: NAMA Social Housing Provision (3 Jul 2014)

There is a housing crisis in the country and a serious homelessness problem, which dates to...

Topical Issue Debate: NAMA Social Housing Provision (3 Jul 2014)

Seán Kenny: I thank the Minister of State for that reply. I understand the Minister of State, Deputy Jan O'Sullivan, has no role in the allocation of units but that is not the issue I was trying to raise. A decision has already been made in these cases to allocate apartment units. I am baffled by the complexity of this matter because it involves four bodies, Tuath, a voluntary body, NAMA, Dublin City...

Many of the questions I was going to ask have already been asked but it is clear to me that Dublin City Council has applied the planning laws as they are in dealing with this planning application.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications: Concert Licensing: Dublin City Council (18 Jul 2014)

Seán Kenny: I know, but am just pointing out that Mr. Keegan has suggested such a review also. It would be worthwhile. The point remains that Garth Brooks cancelled the show.

Are we going to have more committee meetings such as this in which we go over and...
