274. Deputy Barry Cowen asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government his views on the inclusion of national policy objective 18b in the national planning framework in view of the concerns over the potential legality of local needs planning criteria for one-off housing; the legislative and policy impacts that will ensue if case law demonstrates that such local needs criteria are not compatible with Articles 43 and 56 of the EC treaty; and his further views on whether the inclusion of this as a core national planning objective could expose local authorities to potential liabilities.
