Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Maritime Area Planning Bill 2021: Committee Stage (Resumed) (2 Nov 2021)

Peter Burke: There is detailed clarification in section 32, but every application would have to be assessed against the conditions set out in the marine planning framework. It is not that we will have one sector in the maritime area, at the cost of all other users or all other conditions. The Minister will have to make a determination based on the shared vision for the NMPF, policy, that the proposal...

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Maritime Area Planning Bill 2021: Committee Stage (Resumed) (2 Nov 2021)

Peter Burke: It is open to any committee, in theory, to have a query or say on the DMAP, or consideration of it. On the Deputy's question regarding the instigation of a DMAP, each one would have its own separate public participation statement. Again, in the first instance, the DMAP is on a more micro level. The NMPF sits at the top of the tree, with the policy statement on top of that. We then get...

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Maritime Area Planning Bill 2021: Committee Stage (Resumed) (21 Oct 2021)

Peter Burke: Amendment No. 48 proposes public consultation on any marine planning guidelines in line with the State's obligations under the strategic environmental assessment, SEA, directive and the Aarhus Convention. By their nature, such guidelines will require strategic environmental assessment. Integral to that process is public consultation. Guidelines prepared without that assessment and...

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Maritime Area Planning Bill 2021: Committee Stage (Resumed) (21 Oct 2021)

Peter Burke: I thank the Deputies for their engagement. In the context of typographical errors, I refer to amendment No. 52 in which it is explicitly stated that any amendment shall be required to be the subject of public consultation. That is the amendment to which I referred in saying that consultation would be required if a typographical error had to be amended subsequent to the issuing of...

Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Maritime Area Planning Bill 2021: Committee Stage (Resumed) (21 Oct 2021)

Peter Burke: It is not that it is set out; it is part of how you form guidelines. There is a reason for guidelines coming about and, on that basis, you would engage with stakeholders to try to develop the best guidelines possible. When it comes to the parameters of the guidelines, you have to have your screening and processes subsequent to that in order to decide the level of consultation and thresholds...
