Abstract

These Regulations provide for the amendment of the Local Government (Planning and Development) Acts, 1963 to 1993; the European Communities (Environmental Impact Assessment) Regulations, 1989 and the Environmental Protection Agency Act, 1992, for the purpose of giving effect to Council Directive 85/337/EEC on the assessment of the effects of certain public and private projects on the environment. The amendments arise principally from the coming into operation of integrated licensing function of the Environmental Protection Agency which includes a role in relation to environmental impact statements for licensable activities concerned.
