Places for People: National Policy on Architecture Public Consultation

It is really important that we hear your views on the proposed new National Policy on Architecture.

The series of questions we ask here are meant to guide the process. However, these questions should in no way limit your response. We welcome your views on all aspects of our built environment.

You don't have to fill out all of the questions - when you are ready, go straight to the end to submit your completed responses.

In addition to filling out this survey, you are welcome to contact us by email to architecture@chg.gov.ie

Or write to us at:
