Remediation of Dwellings Damaged by the Use of Defective Concrete Blocks (Amendment) Bill 2025: Committee and Remaining Stages
Dail Éireann — 2025-12-10
============================================================

Charles Ward (RDR), Donegal

I move amendment No. 27:
In page 9, between lines 23 and 24, to insert the following:
“(14) Where a designated local authority refuses to recognise an individual as a relevant owner under subsection (4A), the individual shall be entitled to appeal such refusal under Part 5.”.
No applicant can be blocked from the scheme without recourse. The amendment gives anyone who is refused to be recognised as a relevant owner a clear right to appeal, protecting families from arbitrary decisions and ensuring they get the support they are entitled to.
