The newspaper reports that PN has tabled a proposal whereby ODZs will be safeguarded and will only be allowed to be built in exceptional cases. Furthermore, even in exceptional cases, permits are not guaranteed. The proposal states that approval for development is granted by a two thirds majority in a vote in parliament, thus ensuring accountability and transparency.
