Electricity Costs (Domestic Electricity Accounts) Emergency Measures and Miscellaneous Provisions Bill 2022: Committee and Remaining Stages
Seanad Éireann — 2022-10-13
============================================================

Marie Sherlock (LAB), Labour Panel

The Minister of State is fully capable of going beyond calling this a breach of natural justice and ensuring that it is set out in clear terms in the Bill. It is poor reassurance to any of these tenants to say that such practice is a breach of natural justice and they must go to the RTB. There will be an ambiguity if the matter is not set out clearly in the Bill. I ask the Minister of State to consider our amendment again. He is saying he is sympathetic to the situation I have outlined. I cannot understand why he does not follow through by incorporating our proposal into the legislation.
