- Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (14 Feb 2024)
Richard Boyd Barrett: I have tabled this amendment as well. Apologies for missing Deputy Ó Broin's contribution. Again, it seems like an obvious omission, that is, for the requirement in a development plan to prepare a strategy for conservation of natural and built heritage, not to include special amenity area orders and the identification of areas where such orders would be beneficial for the community or...
- Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (14 Feb 2024)
Richard Boyd Barrett: That might affect how we would put this into the Bill or the way in which we would put forward the amendment. It would not negate the central point that the special amenity areas should be part of such a strategy and should be required in the identification of such areas as part of a development plan. Is that not the case?

- Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (14 Feb 2024)
Richard Boyd Barrett: To add to that, the section our amendment No. 410 deals with states: "A planning authority shall prepare a strategy for the conservation, protection, management and improvement of the natural and built heritage and landscape in the functional area". It continues, "The strategy shall include objectives for the conservation, protection, management and improvement of", and then it gives a long...
- Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (14 Feb 2024)
Richard Boyd Barrett: Nobody is disputing that there could, under certain circumstances, be a conflict between a decision to identify or establish a special amenity area order and biodiversity objectives. That could potentially happen. This is the point about the wording of our amendment. If an area is subject to a special amenity area order, why would we not want to conserve it? One would assume that the...
- Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (14 Feb 2024)
Richard Boyd Barrett: As I read it, and pardon me if I do not understand - I am sure the Minister of State is struggling as well - under section 166, which is the "Effect of expiration of duration of permission": Subject to subsection (3), a permission granted under this Part shall, on the expiration of its duration, cease to have effect as regards— (a) the entire development, where the development to...

- Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (14 Feb 2024)
Richard Boyd Barrett: Just to underline that point, the ministerial amendment states that in relation to retention permission for any unauthorised pre-existing structure which has got permission, no time limit is imposed on it because it is pre-existing. That is what the Minister of State said to us earlier.
- Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Planning and Development Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (14 Feb 2024)
Richard Boyd Barrett: I refer to a situation, however, where that permission included permission to do something that had not yet been done. It is rolled in with the existing structure. They now have a permission, which has no expiration date, to do things that have not yet been done. It is an open-ended permission.

- Reform of the Television Licence Fee Model: Motion [Private Members] (13 Feb 2024)
Richard Boyd Barrett: It would be grossly unfair, but it is looking like it may well be the case, that the public and workers who did absolutely nothing wrong will pick up the tab for the scandals that emerged in RTÉ. 8 o’clock They will be collateral damage for the lack of governance and the bad behaviour of some people. That appear to be a likely outcome for hundreds of jobs, not those of the...
