A redacted version of a report into practices at An Bord Pleanála may be published, according to the Housing Minister.
Minister Darragh O'Brien has referred the report to the Gardaí, the Standards in Public Office Commission and the Director of Public Prosecutions.
It examined former Deputy Chair of the planning body Paul Hyde over alleged conflicts of interest.
The initial allegations against him concerned planning for a proposed development in Blackpool and in April it emerged that Paul Hyde had been involved in refusing planning for the development and that he was part owner of other land near the site but never declared his interest.
Since then, questions have been raised about other planning decisions in which he played a role primarily those involving strategic housing developments and communication masts.
