Clare TD Warns Of "Serious Setback" If Modular Wastewater Treatment Bogged Down In Bureaucracy
Update: 2025-12-08
Description
A Clare TD fears communities in dire need of housing could be dealt a "serious setback" if a proposal to speed up construction becomes bogged down in bureaucracy. Bodyke Fine Gael Deputy Joe Cooney is urging the Government and Uisce Éireann not to create a "technical jungle" when establishing planning guidance for a new scheme involving modular wastewater treatment systems. The scheme, which was proposed by Deputy Cooney in June, will see developers use modular units in areas where wastewater treatment plants are at capacity to facilitate housing delivery. He says excessive red tape must be avoided to ensure the practice is adopted in 2026.
