Planning applications in Ireland, week 37 of 2026

No applications for this week have reached the national register yet.

Provisional. Councils publish to the national register a week or more after receiving an application, so a week’s total keeps rising for four to five weeks after it ends. The register is current to 31 August 2026. Treat the week-on-week comparison as indicative until then.

Method

Counts are of applications with a received date inside the ISO week (7 September to 13 September), read from the national planning applications dataset published by the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage on behalf of the 31 planning authorities. Major projects are identified by scanning each development description; sizes come from the register fields and the description itself, and each story quotes the description in full.
