Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government

Earlier this year, my Department conducted a review of the legislation under its remit to identify if any of it was based upon or drew upon the concepts in Article 41.2 of the Constitution. No such legislation was identified.

The review was undertaken on foot of a request by the Department of Justice and Equality.
