When considering controversial strategic housing developments (SHD), Bord Pleanalála (ABP) board members only disagreed with each other twice out of almost 400 applications.

Eamon Ryan’s policy adviser admitted in a private meeting that no one in the Green Party leader’s ministerial department is working on a plan to achieve net-zero carbon emissions in Ireland’s whole energy supply by 2050.

Just two Bord Pleanála (ABP) board members refused a challenge against a controversial Intel expansion in county Kildare – despite there being a legal requirement for three board members to make such decisions.

An Bord Pleanála (ABP) board member Michelle Fagan voted on a further 15 planning applications in her own Dublin neighbourhood. One of these developments was just 90 metres from her own home.

The Bord Pleanála (ABP) deputy chairperson didn’t declare a conflict of interest when he refused a campaign group a challenge on a €140 million flood-defence scheme now subject of Supreme Court proceedings.
