810. Deputy Mick Wallace asked the Minister for Defence if planning permission was sought to demolish dwellings at the Curragh Camp as required by Schedule 2, Part (1), class 50 of the Planning and Development Regulations 2001; and if not, the reason for same. [12970/14]
View answerAs the Deputy is aware, by Regulations made under the Planning and Development Act, 2000, developments used for the purpose of or in connection with the operation of the Defence Forces are exempted from the planning laws. Accordingly the Defence Forces are exempt from the provisions of the Section of the Regulations referred to by the Deputy.
