Planning and Development Bill 2023

Public bill · Government · Presented

Major overhaul of planning law that replaces the Planning and Development Act 2000 and tries to make the system clearer, faster and more plan-led. It lengthens key planning plans from six to ten years, introduces new national planning statements, strengthens the role of regional and local plans, and creates new Urban Development Zones to speed up housing and other major development in suitable places. It also sets firmer deadlines for planning decisions, reorganises An Bord Pleanála as An Coimisiún Pleanála, and tightens rules on appeals, judicial review, environmental assessment and enforcement. The Bill also updates protections for heritage buildings, keeps licensing rules for events and funfairs, and aims to support more homes, better infrastructure and more consistent decision-making.

Formal long title

An Act to consolidate and revise the law relating to planning and development; to provide for proper planning and sustainable development in the interests of the common good; to provide for the licensing of events and control of funfairs; for those purposes to repeal and replace the Planning and Development Act 2000; to amend certain other enactments; and to provide for matters connected therewith.
