Question:

374. Deputy Ciarán Cannon asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage the actions he intends to take following the decision by An Bord Pleanála to refuse substitute consent to the ESB for the development of a windfarm at Derrybrien, County Galway. [8140/22]

Written answers

Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage

In accordance with Section 30 of the Planning and Development Act 2000, as amended, I am specifically precluded from exercising any power or control in relation to any particular case with which a planning authority or An Bord Pleanála is or may be concerned.

It is therefore a matter for relevant parties to the case to consider the case.
