Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

The first refusal law, which is a new right for renters, the right essentially to buy a property from the landlord if you can afford to buy it, is an additional right which will be given to renters. As with any primary legislation, it can take time. This was only announced towards the end of March. As is often the case, it can take a number of months to do primary legislation but we certainly anticipate having it done this year. That will add to the other rights that this Government has given renters-----
