The Planning and Development Bill 2023 proposes to reform the Irish planning system. This Note 2 deals with the PLS process, including commentary from the Department on PLS recommendations and analyses selected key provisions of the published Bill. It does not attempt to provide a full summary of the Bill but instead examines certain selected elements focusing on key components that are not only pivotal in shaping Irish planning law but are also at the centre of significant debates arising from the Draft Bill. Specifically, this includes the operation and lifespan of local development plans, issues related to access to justice and Judicial Review as well as recent developments and changes within An Bord Pleanála (ABP).
