Reply To: Senator McSharry – defender of democratic purity

with respect Devin, you’re not reading what I’ve written. At present, there is no dialogue. An Tiasce’s reaction and An Bord Pleanala’s decisions can not be driven by what’s happened in the past. Commercial development is legitimate, so is the need for regional authorities to provide housing.

The planning authorities in Sligo want to do the best they can and are commited to their town, as much as An Taisce

It is also legitimate for a person who owns land to want to build on it.
