Planning system reform
The Taoiseach says the Government is increasing resources for An Bord Pleanála and that the forthcoming planning Bill will overhaul and update the planning system.
Deputy Ó Cuív asked about An Bord Pleanála. As he rightly said, the Minister, Deputy Darragh O'Brien, has been working hard in this area to increase the resources into the board. I know he will want to do more in that space and I will support him in that regard. I also think the planning Bill, which we need to pass before the summer recess, is a major piece of landmark legislation to update and overhaul our entire planning system.
