Alan Farrell (FG), Dublin Fingal

I raise the tenant in situ scheme which has already been raised this afternoon. Unfortunately, as was mentioned earlier, there is a diversity of application of the process by different local authorities across the State. It has been brought to my attention that where a property is not in compliance with building regulations, however minor, such an application is deemed to be invalid. Perhaps the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage might be in a position to enhance the scheme to ensure that a tenant applying for the tenant in situ scheme and-or their landlord would be facilitated in some way either directly through the tenant in situ scheme or through other means.
