I move amendment No. 31:

In page 46, line 34, to delete “revised.”.” and substitute the following:

“revised.

(10) The Government shall cause a copy of an annual review of the revised or new National Planning Framework to be laid before each House of the Oireachtas for consideration and debate and shall cause a copy to be sent to the relevant Oireachtas Committee.

(11) In this section ‘Appropriate Assessment Report’ includes that the Public Spending Code (2013) appraisal toolkit and value for money criteria be followed and implemented, prior to any announcement, in respect of all relevant public spending decisions under the auspices of the National Planning Framework.

(12) In this section ‘relevant Oireachtas Committee’ means a Committee appointed by either House of the Oireachtas or jointly by both Houses of the Oireachtas to which has been duly assigned the role of examining matters relating to environment and planning (other than the Committee of Public Accounts or the Committee on Members’ Interests of Dáil Éireann or the Committee on Members’ Interests of Seanad Éireann) or a sub-committee of such a relevant Oireachtas Committee.”.”.
