Student accommodation planning applications in Dublin — 28 files in three years and what they showTwenty-eight applications mentioning student accommodation reached the Greater Dublin registers in 36 months, 14 granted and 3 refused. The purpose-built schemes of the SHD years are now on the register as extensions of duration and amendments; the new files are pubs and offices in Maynooth and Dublin 1 converting to student rooms, and the one refusal is a five-storey block at Harold's Cross. Every file linked.
Apartment and build-to-rent planning applications in Dublin — the register's largest schemes, council by council399 applications mentioning apartments reached the Greater Dublin registers in 12 months, 136 granted and 41 refused, with 7,666 homes in the files that state a count. South Dublin and Meath carry the big schemes (886 homes at Clonburris, 757 at Moygaddy), Dublin City carries the volume. Which councils grant, where the refusals cluster, and every recent file linked.
Appeals overturned by council — how often An Coimisiún Pleanála reverses each Dublin council, and in which directionThe Commission reversed the council on 301 of 1,195 Dublin appeals decided in 24 months, 25%. South Dublin was reversed most (30%), Dublin City least (23%), and 76 of Fingal's 85 reversals turned a refusal into a grant. How the appeal works, what a reversal rate means, and how to read your council's number before you appeal.
Judicial review of a planning decision in Ireland — eight weeks, substantial grounds, and who may bring oneThe Commission decided 510 appeals from the seven Dublin-area councils in the 12 months to September 2026, and each opened an eight-week judicial review window. What s.50 allows, what it costs, what the court can and cannot do, and how the 2024 Act changes standing.
