Vacant Properties
Dail Éireann — 2025-10-08
============================================================

Maeve O'Connell (FG), Dublin Rathdown

I welcome all those supports. In my constituency, we have some of these issues in the context of neighbourhood centres, which are neither shops nor accommodation. That is frustrating. I would like to follow up on the derelict sites levy, which is to become a tax. When do we anticipate that it will be activated to try to encourage more of these properties to be brought back into use?
