Section 57 of the Planning and Development (Amendment) Act 2018, which came into force on enactment, amends section 28(1) of the Planning and Development (Housing) and Residential Tenancies Act 2016, which remains to be commenced.

In the near future, I expect to make the commencement order required to bring into operation the latter provision, which amended section 42 of the Planning and Development Act 2000 relating to the extension of the duration of a planning permission.
