Planning and Development (Amendment) Bill, 2002: Committee and Remaining Stages.

 

I believe the Senator will agree with me, particularly as neither of us has any great depth of legal knowledge, that if I did what she is suggesting, it is reasonable to assume that legal challenges would have arisen. If we had taken that route, all the planning permissions would have been frozen because nobody could do anything in respect of them until a judgment was handed down. If such a judgment was favourable in terms of the point made by the Senator, we would then have had to return the relevant permissions to the planning system.
