Vacant Properties
Dail Éireann — 2023-03-09
============================================================

Thomas Gould (SF), Cork North-Central

Will the Minister of State outline the processes being put forward or that are planned to be put forward to tackle vacancy and dereliction? In 2021, 19 local authorities did not collect a red cent under the Derelict Sites Act, which has been in place for 32 years. The ban on eviction has been removed this week and derelict sites that could house people are lying idle.
