I will be supporting Government amendment No. 2, which I believe is better than the original provision in the Bill. Having said that, I would prefer amendment No. 3, which clarifies the matter even further and better. The aim here is to enhance the system already in place by increasing participation options, such as online meetings. We need absolute clarity that any intention to retain an online format will not mean the end of public meetings and the interface between planners and individuals and their communities as it stands. There is still work to be done. I am aware that my Sinn Féin colleagues in the Dáil will also return to this point.
