Core Refusal Reason
The application for an extension of duration was refused because the development had not commenced and substantial works had not been carried out prior to the expiration of the original planning permission, failing to meet the statutory requirements of Section 42 of the Planning and Development Act 2000.

- The application failed to comply with Article 42(ff) of the Planning and Development Regulations 2001, as amended, by failing to provide necessary information for a screening determination regarding environmental impact assessment.
