Residential Tenancies and Valuation Bill 2020: Second Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2020-07-31
============================================================

Aidan Davitt (FF), Industrial and Commercial Panel

I am sure the Minister of State will give us the figures. My experience and the experience of the people I talk to throughout the country is that if a case can be made for the purchase of a particular house by a council, the purchase happens. I have seen this personally; I have been involved. I ask the Minister of State to clarify the position.
There are a couple of other points. I have listened intently. Based on some of the opinions that have been expressed, Senators must have been reading a different Bill than the one I read.
