Urban Renewal Bill 1998

Public bill · Government · Presented

Creates integrated plans for renewing selected urban areas, covering housing, jobs, heritage, transport and public spaces, with possible grants and up to 10 years of reducing business-rate charges for qualifying improvements. It links tax relief for redevelopment to those plans, gives the Dublin Docklands Development Authority similar powers, and tightens rules to ensure incentives support genuine renewal.

Formal long title
