Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill, 2002: Second Stage.

 

The Minister referred to integration and the fact people do not live side by side. What does this mean? In the case to which I referred it was the fear of living side by side and the policies of local authorities during the years which caused the problem. We have seen the headlines in recent years. Local authorities have had to purchase houses at enormous expense to house sections of the community in need of housing. It is another classic example of the failure of current housing policy.
