Question:98 Mrs. Owen asked the Minister for the Environment and Local Government the proposals, if any, he has to increase the number of staff available to Fingal County Council in view of the fact that the increase in the number of planning applications being received is currently equivalent to the same number received by Dublin County Council in 1993 and in view of the fact that the number of planning inspectors and enforcement officers has remained the same in spite of this increase; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
