Order of Business
10:30 am
Jim Walsh (Fianna Fail)
Given that the construction industry is a vital part of Ireland's economic growth, it is essential that bureaucracy should not get in the way of progression and development. I accept, however, that there might be dangers in imposing time limits because An Bord Pleanála might issue large numbers of refusals as a consequence. An Bord Pleanála must be properly resourced in order that it will, in the interests of the economy as a whole, deal more expeditiously with the cases that come before it.
