I refer to the reply to Question No. 377 of 1 April, 2014.

My Department is giving consideration to the detailed issues to be addressed with regard to the establishment of the Office of the Planning Regulator, including those raised in the Question, in the preparation of the forthcoming General Scheme of a new Planning and Development Bill. It is intended that the General Scheme of the new Bill will be published in the coming months.
