Housing Schemes
Dail Éireann — 2023-05-18
============================================================

Ivana Bacik (LAB), Dublin Bay South

Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council. The levies work out at approximately €13,500 per house. They are placing a huge burden on the eight families. The councillor has asked the planners to waive the levy but they will not. I am concerned about whether policies adopted by Government are being passed consistently onto councils. We see, unfortunately, serious inconsistencies in the application of the tenant in situ scheme across councils. It appears from the Minister of State’s answer that not all councils may be applying the same waiver approach in this sort of scenario.
