I agree with this sentiment, as part of Part M of the building controls is probably one of the most abused. It has existed for some time but a lack of adherence to it is evident. The Minister of State gave a reasonable answer to this on Committee Stage when he stated that the Government was introducing a building control Bill in the future. I agree also with his statement that local building control authorities, rather than individuals, should monitor individual sectors. Overall, I support Senator Terry's assertion that compliance with Part M must be monitored, as do all aspects of the Disability Bill in future. Everybody should in their own way ensure that all aspects of this Bill, more so than other Bills considered in the past, are monitored and delivered.
