Catherine Connolly: The bikes took me on a new route, I am sorry.

Planning and Development Bill 2023: Report Stage (11 Jun 2024)

Cian O'Callaghan: That is no problem at all. I was beginning to wonder whether some of the Deputies were proposing the community gardens should be placed on roadways, based on the way the conversation was going. I thought that was a very radical suggestion. Some radical environmentalists subscribe to that idea of guerilla gardening, so perhaps that is where that discussion was going. Returning to the...

Planning and Development Bill 2023: Report Stage (11 Jun 2024)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I welcome these amendments, particularly that relating to community gardens. Many moons ago, when I was only a youngster, there were allotments in Sandymount opposite the Protestant church on St. John's Road. Bit by bit, the older men were leaving the allotments. This was not popular. There was a danger that the allotments would be taken over if they were let go to rack and ruin, which...

Planning and Development Bill 2023: Report Stage (11 Jun 2024)

Mattie McGrath: Gabhaim buíochas leis an Teachta Matthews agus an Teachta Ó Cathasaigh. I know how hard they and other committee members worked on Committee Stage of this Bill. I tried to assist a few different times, voting as a substitute and so on. They did a lot of hard work.

Steven Matthews: I will speak to amendment No. 113, 123 and amendment No. 1 to amendment No. 220. Amendment No. 113 is the definition based on work that my colleague Deputy Ó Cathasaigh had done in respect of community gardens and allotments. I welcome the Minister's introduction of that definition in amendment No. 357. Amendments Nos. 354 to 357, inclusive, cover the matter quite well. The purpose...

Darragh O'Brien: I will look at that. I have not seen it. We can come back during the course of this debate or tomorrow and we will get some clarification on it. As I said, I am sure Deputy Ó Broin does not believe everything he reads in the newspapers.

Darragh O'Brien: In fairness, that certainly is helpful, and I will check it out. Maidir leis an ábhar eile, níl aon rud eile le rá agam faoi anois. Tuigim an fhadhb faoina raibh an Teachta Ó Snodaigh ag caint. Feicim é tríd na contaetha. I gContae Fhine Gall agus i gcathair Bhaile Átha Cliath, déantar sárjab ó thaobh rudaí a bheith i mBéarla...
