An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business Dail Éireann — 2023-09-20 ============================================================ Simon Coveney (FG), Cork South-Central -----effectively rent price caps, or at least limitations in terms of inflation. We made a decision at the time, on advice, that we should not apply that cap to new properties coming on to the market because we wanted to see more new properties coming into the rental market, which we still need.
