Planning needs root-and-branch review - Butler
Speaking as the Northern Ireland Chamber of Commerce and Industry published a report on the need for reform of the current planning system, Ulster Unionist Party deputy leader Robbie Butler MLA said,
“I welcome the report published today by the Northern Ireland Chamber of Commerce and Industry which highlights many of the challenges our existing planning system has created.
“It is obvious that the entire system requires urgent and thorough review, ensuring that any amended and modernised replacement provides a simple, clear and efficient planning service.
“I, along with my party colleagues, will be calling on the department to undertake a full root-and-branch review of the planning system and will, when a functioning Executive returns to Stormont, call on the Minister to give this matter the attention it deserves. “
