Paul McAuliffe (FF), Dublin North-West

Two commitments in the programme for Government were welcome, those being, addressing the issue of apartment defects and reviewing the Multi-Unit Developments Act, or MUD Act, which governs management companies, sinking funds and management fees. In the coming months, we will see owners’ management companies, OMCs, receiving millions, if not billions, of euro in Government support. We need that to be matched with the review of the Act that the Department of Justice is undertaking. Important issues need to be addressed. Some of them are unregulated, with small numbers of people involved and the correct provisions not being made to meet future costs, for example, for lifts. We need the Department of Justice to follow through on its commitment to review the MUD Act in the same way as the Department of housing followed through in respect of apartment defects.
