Paul Reid expected to be named head of new planning body

An Coimisiún Pleanála will be formally established on 18th June 2025, replacing An Bord Pleanála as Ireland’s new planning authority.
The establishment of this body follows new laws introduced last year aimed at reforming the planning system, including the implementation of mandatory deadlines to accelerate decision-making.
Minister James Browne announced that the new body will have a modern structure with nearly 300 staff to handle housing and infrastructure appeals efficiently.
Paul Reid, who served as HSE chief from 2019 to 2022, will chair the Governing Board. Minister Browne highlighted Reid’s proven ability to guide organizations through significant periods of change while maintaining effective service delivery.
The reformed authority aims to reduce backlogs and meet statutory targets, ensuring timely and legally robust decisions to support national development plans.
