The Commissioner for Environment and Planning brought to the attention of the Planning Authority the fact that no Board meetings are allowed while the Covid-19 sanctions are still in place as these meetings have to be carried out in public according to the Development and Planning Act.

This is also in line with a notice issued by the same Planning Authority a week ago.  Forging ahead with these meetings will seriously put into question the validity of the decisions taken during the same meetings.

The Commissioner for Environment and Planning is publishing the letter he sent to the Planning Authority.
