Fianna Fail City Councillor John Connolly proposed uploading the documents to the Local Authority's online planning system, where they could be publicly viewed - at this week's meeting.

The City Chief Executive Brendan McGrath advised Councillor Connolly that it would be more appropriate to upload the documents to the City Council's general website as the planning section was not designed to host Part 8 documents.
