Affordable Housing Bill 2021: Committee Stage (Resumed)
Seanad Éireann — 2021-06-04
============================================================

Ivana Bacik (LAB), University of Dublin

I move amendment No. 54:
In page 20, to delete lines 3 to 16.
I am interested to hear the response of the Minister of State on these amendments. As I stated, I am anxious that we have time to consider the cost rental provisions in Part 3 of the Bill, but Senator Moynihan and I wish to reserve our position on these three amendments to sections 16, 17 and 19 and to again make the case about affordability of homes for all and to make the case strongly for more ambitious proposals from Government for the building of homes. That is crucial, along with provisions on security of tenure and affordability of rent. I would like to hear the response of the Minister of State.
