Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill 2025: Committee and Remaining Stages (9 Jul 2025)

James Browne: The rules and procedures of the High Court are set out in the rules of the superior courts and these are made by the Superior Courts Rules Committee in concurrence with the Minister for Justice, Home Affairs and Migration. If by good practice guidelines the Deputy is talking about practice directions, it is my understanding that these are issued by the President of the High Court under...

Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill 2025: Committee and Remaining Stages (9 Jul 2025)

Eoin Ó Broin: I accept the technical explanation but would just make one point. I ask the Minister to examine the principle behind this amendment and to discuss it with the Minister for justice and also, in the course of his work as Minister for housing, with the relevant members of the Judiciary. We need to fix this bit of the system too. There is little value in having statutory timelines for...

Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill 2025: Committee and Remaining Stages (9 Jul 2025)

James Browne: I am very strongly of the view that the operation and procedures of the superior courts is a matter for the Judiciary of the superior courts. It would be inappropriate for the Oireachtas to set down statutory timelines for the courts. The courts need to be able to manage their lists in the manner they see fit. That is my personal opinion and my position as an officeholder.

Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill 2025: Committee and Remaining Stages (9 Jul 2025)

Rory Hearne: I move amendment No. 8: In page 12, between lines 2 and 3, to insert the following: “Construction within a specified timeframe 16. In line with a use it or lose it principle, development must begin construction within a specified timeframe after receiving planning permission. Penalties for non-compliance will include the withdrawal of permission for the development.” ...

Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill 2025: Committee and Remaining Stages (9 Jul 2025)

James Browne: Amendment No. 8 seeks to introduce a use it or lose it principle into the Act of 2024. The amendment itself does not appear to amend a specific section of the Act of 2024 or to outline any details or criteria concerning the timeframes to be specified for commencement or what penalties may be applied. While it is, of course, important that we encourage holders of permissions to commence...

Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill 2025: Committee and Remaining Stages (9 Jul 2025)

James Browne: I will address amendments Nos. 5, 15 and 19 together. These amendments relate to the Bill's compliance with the Aarhus Convention. Amendment No. 5 seeks to provide for third-party observations as part of the suspension of duration of a permission while it is subject to a judicial review by amending section 13. Amendment No. 15 seeks to make similar provisions for third-party...

Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill 2025: Committee and Remaining Stages (9 Jul 2025)

Eoin Ó Broin: That is precisely the problem. If this change to planning legislation had been included in the Planning and Development Act which we spent two years passing through the House, as a committee we could have asked, for example, planning law experts, professional planners and legal experts who specialise in Aarhus Convention compliance their views on this. One of the points I made on Second...
