Denis Naughten (IND), Roscommon-Galway

The programme for Government commits to maintaining the right of a social housing tenant to purchase his or her home. However, purchase of a Part V local authority home is not permitted under the tenant incremental purchase scheme, which came into operation on 1 January 2016 to allow tenants to buy their homes. Where tenancies predate the regulations, tenants were never informed they would never be able to purchase their homes. I ask that the current review taking place takes this particular cohort of individuals into account.
