Child Poverty and Homelessness: Motion [Private Members]
Dail Éireann — 2025-09-24
============================================================

Mark Wall (LAB), Kildare South

I hope that is something we can all agree on in this House. An eviction ban on cases where children are involved should help to provide some respite for the many households that are struggling. We can help to protect future generations and that would lead to a long-lasting, positive outcome for Ireland's young people. The eviction ban during the Covid-19 pandemic prevented people entering homelessness at a time of enormous uncertainty and, most important, protected vulnerable children.
