just seems to be regurgitating when has already been said here many times.

Building control in many parts of Ireland exists at a level so negligible it may as well not exist.

So you've heard about Donegal then?

Dont think there is much new there, well not for anyone in the business anyhow.

Donegal ? Since 1995 around Dublin I have met ONE building control officer once on site for about 5 minutes . That's it .

I worked in the UK for about 10 years and even the most modest projects could expect at least a 1-2 visit where builder architect client whoever was really put through their paces to demonstrate compliance - with documents lodged for building control approval . And any other regulations issues that the officer wished to raise on site

Building Control in Mayo only get involved in anything when they get a written compliant. I have occasionally had to write the odd letter or two to them but thats about the extent of their involvement (of course all my work is perfect!!!:D)
