Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Reclassification and Future Outputs of Approved Housing Bodies: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Paul Lemass:

I certainly will do so. I could not but reply regarding the last point about the four-stage process. The four-step process envisages a 59-week turnaround. In some places, including a couple of developments in Wicklow, the period has been as short as 43 weeks, so we feel this process is quite lean and manages to balance the need for delivery and the need for value for money. There have been a high-profile examples of how very expensive projects might have got through were it not for the four-stage process.
