Housing Policy
Dail Éireann — 2022-03-03
============================================================

Cian O'Callaghan (SD), Dublin Bay North

There is already a serious problem with tenants being evicted due to renovations, and grants for retrofitting should not lead to tenants being evicted or rent increases. The retrofitting scheme is very welcome, but public money should not incentivise evictions or rent increases. What measures specifically will be introduced to prevent this happening and will there be changes to the legislation governing the sector to prevent this?
