The purpose of these guidelines is to set out planning conditions to which planning authorities and An Bord Pleanála must have regard, in granting planning permission for new residential development including houses and/or duplex units.
This is intended to ensure that own-door housing units and duplex units in lower density housing developments are not bulk-purchased for market rental purposes by commercial institutional investors in a manner that causes the displacement of individual purchasers and/or social and affordable housing including cost rental housing.
