Question 333: To ask the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government , further to Question No. 529 of February 2004, if the draft planning guidelines that he intends to issue to planning authorities whose functional areas include a public safety zone will include a recommendation that the associated restrictions on development be entered in the register of local land charges in like manner to that outlined at paragraph 20 of a UK Department of Transport circular (details supplied).

The guidelines for land use of zones that have been identified for public safety zones at State airports, which I intend to issue this year, will provide that planning authorities should zone such lands appropriately in their development plans. The system operated in England of registering local land charges or requiring state bodies to purchase lands on which permission for development has been refused in the interests of proper planning and sustainable development is not a feature of our planning code.
