  • Port of Cork Company (POCC) Comments on the Draft National Planning Framework (NPF)
    Port of Cork Company (POCC) Comments on the Draft National Planning Framework (NPF) Introduction The Port Of Cork Company (POCC) welcome the opportunity to provide comments for consideration to the Draft National Planning Framework (NPF). The POCC is very supportive of the NPF initiative. POCC acknowledge that the Draft NPF is supportive of Port requirements and has considered many aspects of the POCC original submission. Nonetheless, minor amendments and / or additions to the Draft NPF would provide further clarity on policies and initiatives required to facilitate sustainable growth of critical strategic port related development and the potential of maritime economic and leisure activities. The Port of Cork is a key asset in facilitating national and regional growth and can positively contribute to the objectives identified in Cork 2050 and the NPF. POCC Strategic Plan has identified future port locations in Cork’s lower harbour, as follows: . Ringaskiddy . Marino Point . Cobh . Aghada / Whitegate Consent is in place for the redevelopment of Ringaskiddy to accommodate container activities, and in the longer-term Roll-on Roll-off freight trade. However, further investment in port facilities in the Cork Harbour and associated infrastructure is required to support the objectives of the Draft NPF for the sustainable growth of Cork and its region. There is also a need for further policy support to facilitate port related development; realise Ireland’s full maritime potential; and streamline maritime and port related development consent procedures. Submission Request - Overview POCC request that the draft NPF is amended to facilitate the full potential of Port Infrastructure and activities; support the upper harbour redevelopment lands in Cork; and facilitate Maritime Resources as key growth enablers for the Southern Region.
