Seller's Legal Pack for Property Buyers Bill 2021: Second Stage [Private Members]
Dail Éireann — 2023-10-05
============================================================

Helen McEntee (FG), Meath East

I again thank Deputy MacSharry for bringing forward the Bill and thank IPAV and those Members who have worked on it. The overall objective is to support those selling and buying homes to do so in the most efficient and effective manner. We have all probably experienced or know people who have experienced delays and challenges in selling a home, with a knock-on impact on purchasing their own. It is about making sure we have a system that is as effective as possible.
We have to acknowledge and look at where these types of packs have been used elsewhere, how they have not worked and how we can learn from that. That is why I have outlined some of the initial challenges we have identified with a view to seeing how we can work through and overcome them and put forward something that would support consumers and those working in the industry.
I look forward to engaging with the Deputy and the justice committee, as well as potentially those on the housing committee and others, as this goes through the Stages.
