Written answers

A steering group to oversee the review of Part V of the Planning and Development Acts was established in June 2012 with membership from my Department, the local authority sector and the Housing and Sustainable Communities Agency.

The group is chaired by my Department (Mr. Cian Ó Lionáin, Principal Officer) and has met on 3 occasions to date. While the review process is on-going I expect to receive a finalised report shortly, and any future changes to the legislation governing Part V will be informed by this review.
