Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill, 2002: Committee and Remaining Stages.
It is important to emphasis the Part V provision regarding 20% remains. We are removing some of the rigidities. It is a show of trust by me to all of the players that we can deliver. It is a placing of faith in local authorities and their members that they have the capacity to hold to account. I will hold to account at this level, but I hope that my role will be a small one in that I will not have to be on the backs of the local authorities and that they themselves will make sure they are achieving social integration.
