Change of use planning permission in Ireland — 84% granted, short-term letting 2 in 6Dublin councils granted 455 of the 544 change-of-use applications they decided in the 12 months to September 2026. What a material change of use is, which changes are exempt under Part 4, and why short-term letting is refused more than any other.

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.

Who can appeal, the four weeks, the €220 fee, why 240 appeals a year fail on procedure, and the odds by direction.
