Thomas Byrne

Question:

1229. Deputy Thomas Byrne asked the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment if an organisation (details supplied) can avail of a class 35 planning exemption. [18821/19]

Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Communications, Climate Action and Environment

I assume the Deputy is referring to Class 35 exemptions under the Planning and Development Regulations 2001 (Statutory Instrument 600 of 2001). These regulations are a matter for the relevant local authority, and my Department has no function in that regard or in the making of determinations under same.
