Fortune Wants An Bord Pleanála Scrapped

The future is tight

ress release from Cllr Tom Fortune, issued in a flurry and a hurry on Sunday, August 22nd 2022…

Scrap An Bord Pleanala

This is the headline in one of the Sunday newspapers today.

I AGREE 100%!

It is no longer fit for purpose. How could there be any confidence in them?

They are one of a number of national quangos which are answerable to no one. They make decisions that make no sense, some of which destroy communities.

I have experienced decisions where they totally ignored the report of their own inspector.

The way the board members are appointed poses a lot of questions.

Making cosmetic changes is not sufficient. IT NEEDS to be SCRAPPED.

Make changes at LOCAL AUTHORITY leval that will make PLANNING FULLY TRANSPARENT.

You can try and keep up with the latest local planning shenanigans for Greystones, Kilcoole and beyond here.
