Question Time Dublin: experts call for a mayor

“I think a combination of lack of leadership in the public sector, translating itself into weak planning policies, has effectively meant Dublin is contributing to some of the problems it is now suffering.”

Hammerson's Simon Betty calls for a Dublin mayor at EG's Question Time Dublin, held in the City Hall on 30 March.

Speaking on the panel were:

Kevin Nowlan, Chief Executive, Hibernia REIT
Simon Betty, Director of Retail, Hammerson
John McCartney, Director – Research, Savills
Joe McGinley, Chief Executive, Iconic Offices
Dan O’Brien, Chief Economist, Institute of International and European Affairs and columnist with the Irish Independent and Sunday Independent.
