Local Government (Planning and Development) (No. 2) Regulations, 1997.

These Regulations make a number of amendments to principal Regulations of 1994. These amendments provide that relevant planning authorities must send to the Dublin Transportation Office (DTI) copies of development plans and also of planning applications and details of proposed local authority development, including environmental impact statements, where these may impact on the DTI Strategy. They also provide for the Ministers for the Marine and for Education and for the appropriate health board to receive copies of draft development plans. They amend references in the 1994 Regulations to the Commissioners of Public Works to reflect the transfer of the Commissioners' heritage functions to the Minister for Arts, Culture and the Gaeltacht.
