Behold. Someone has finally not answered my questions on Ballymun. Many thanks to Deputy Terence Flanagan for his relentless efforts in obtaining answers to some questions I put to the Public Accounts Committee on the cost overruns on the Ballymun Regeneration Project. It took him two years. Earlier this week, we got a response from Ciaran Murray, Managing Director of Ballymun Regeneration Limited. I won’t bore you (yet) with his ten page reply. Here’s a little. The X million cost to the taxpayer doesn’t...

Planning Dispatch by Garry Miley - Irish Planning Analysed, Planning Ireland - Planning Applications Down Big Time
http://www.garrymiley.com/CommentView,guid,d1018ae4-0339-4f63-8850-822813d7713d.aspx
Planning Applications Down Big Time. Having reached the half way point in 2009, I thought I’d have a quick look at a few planning application numbers from around the country for January to June. In Clare, there were 680 planning applications to the end of June. This compares to 1750 for the same period in 2007. On quick perusal, applications are for no more than extensions and retentions.

Planning Dispatch by Garry Miley - Irish Planning Analysed, Planning Ireland - What the Germans think of us
http://www.garrymiley.com/2009/07/16/WhatTheGermansThinkOfUs.aspx
What the Germans think of us. Many thanks to a friend who found this article in a German newspaper about life in Limerick and went to the trouble of translating it into English for us. There's nothing in it you don't already know, but its still quite chilling to read an outsider's view of the society we've created for ourselves. Details after the jump. A city in survival mode. It is bad at present. Cats, dogs and ponies at every corner. Estates such as Moyross now already constitute over 50 per cent....

Planning Dispatch by Garry Miley - Irish Planning Analysed, Planning Ireland - Open Minded Lending
http://www.garrymiley.com/CommentView,guid,df0146d7-613f-49de-bf68-7de5dd9d94b9.aspx
The process of repossessing the homes of another 83 families for failure to meet mortgage payments commenced at the High Court yesterday. The ‘83’ figure was a record. But don’t worry if you missed it it’ll be broken again next Monday as it has been for more Mondays than you can count. As everyone knows, Start specialises in charging people with dodgy credit ratings way over the odds for property backed loans. This is from their website. Anyone with a Start story to relate?

What is the stars? How do you begin to get your head around Nama? How do begin to get your head around the universe?
