Remediation of Dwellings Damaged by the Use of Defective Concrete Blocks Bill 2022: Committee Stage (Resumed) and Remaining Stages
Seanad Éireann — 2022-07-14
============================================================

Paul Gavan (SF), Labour Panel

The example I gave the Minister of State earlier speaks directly to this amendment. It is a family home eligible for €160,000 under this scheme with a €200,000 rebuild cost. With respect to the section he is supporting, how is it fair to block that person from at least being able to recover that portion of the costs to ensure he or she is not actually out of pocket? Will the Minister of State address that question?
