An Bord Pleanála chief Paul Hyde resigns amid probe into his planning decisions

  1. I cannot believe a planning official has been corrupted during the tenure of a FFG government. Didn’t happen, lads. Not on their watch.

  2. If they dig into what the rest of the politicians are up to with properties in Ireland they will find the real reason why there is a housing crisis. *You* don’t matter when they make money from not caring.

  3. There needs to be serious jail time **if** our planning system is still suffering from corruption. It affects too many people for too far into the future to be dismissed again.

    >When Paul Hyde was forced to explain his decision to vote against a proposed SHD that bordered land owned by his company, in a letter to housing minister Darragh O’Brien, he referenced the board’s unanimous decision in that case.

    WTF is this about? How did anyone think this massive conflict of interest was acceptable??

  4. Needs to be stripped of his own assets or jailed. Powerful positions demand high wages but should also incurr a cost for blatant criminal activity
