PQ 144
144. Deputy Conor D. McGuinness asked the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage his views on whether it is appropriate that development of large-scale permanent telecommunications masts can avail of the section 254 licensing process generally utilised for temporary signage and street furniture, rather than the standard planning permission process; if the grant of such a licence on local authority land by An Bord Pleanála conflicts with the reserved function of councillors to dispose of property under section 183 of the Local Government Act 2001; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
