This amendment seeks to maintain rights of way referred to in a development plan. Currently, the legislation only requires maintenance of those rights of way listed in the plans at the time when the section was commenced. As interpreted by Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council, for example, the obligation to maintain does not apply to any rights of way listed subsequently. The Green Party finds this illogical and is thus seeking to amend that provision with this amendment.
