An Bord Pleanála’s deputy chairman has told the organisation’s board of an undeclared conflict of interest in a planning decision he signed off in an appeal taken by his sister-in-law.
The disclosure comes days after Minister for Housing Darragh O’Brien asked Remy Farrell SC to examine claims of impropriety against Paul Hyde in relation to his personal declarations to An Bord Pleanála. He insists such allegations are groundless. Paul Hyde is understood to be arguing that no conflict was declared because he simply did not know the appeal was taken by a close family member or that it concerned his brother’s property.
Having told the board he became aware of the matter only in recent days, Mr Hyde asked that it be brought to Mr Farrell’s attention. “In that context, the chairperson has brought this to the attention of the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage,” An Bord Pleanála said on Friday night.

They need to get rid of that charlatan. I hate people who don't declare that they might have fingers in more than 1 pie. My devotion to the FAI, and theirs to me, were unwavering and unequivocal.

Wait; is that reverse nepotism?
