Minister         O’Brien welcomes support of regulations to assist restaurants and cafés   The Minister for Housing, Local Government and         Heritage, Darragh O’Brien TD, has welcomed the support of regulations         to assist restaurants and cafés at the Oireachtas Committee today. The two sets of regulations which received cross party         support include the Planning and Development Act 2000 (Exempted         Development) (No. 3) Regulations 2021, which concerns planning         exemptions for restaurants to operate as takeaways for the remainder of         2021, and the Planning and Development (Street Furniture Fees)         Regulations 2021 which waive the section 254 street furniture license         fees for the remainder of 2021 for tables and chairs associated with         outdoor diningut. 

A third set of Regulations, which do not require the         approval of both Houses of the Oireachtas, are being progressed         simultaneously and provide for the erection of awnings, coverings and         other similar apparatus for outdoor dining to be a licenced activity         under section 254 of the Planning and Development Act 2000, as amended,         when it is linked with a street furniture licence for tables and chairs         under that section.
