In regard to the purchase and disposal of land, local authorities operate within the framework of relevant legislative provisions, notably those of the Planning and Development Act 2000 and the Local Government Act 2001. In addition, the extensive legislative and administrative procedures set out in EU public procurement directives and related guidelines govern the activities of local authorities and other public bodies in regard to the purchase and disposal of other property above defined thresholds.
