My Department has issued comprehensive guidelines to assist local authorities in the implementation of Part V of the Planning and Development Acts 2000 to 2006 on a number of occasions since December 2000, with the most recent guidance issuing in November 2006. While I have no immediate plans to issue further guidance, the matter remains open for consideration on an ongoing basis in the context of my Department's oversight of the implementation of Part V generally.
