Vol. 265 No. 4

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Location of Service Garages.

80.

asked the Minister for Local Government if all new garages must be located in areas zoned for industrial purposes and, if so, if this will restrict new repair service garages to areas which are generally well removed from the residential community; and if the modern service garage is regarded as a greater source of environmental pollution than a supermarket, laundry or any other service allowed to operate in a residential zone.

The zoning of land is a matter for each individual planning authority when making or reviewing their development plan and, presumably, they will have regard to local needs and circumstances.
