Vacant Properties: Motion [Private Members]
Dail Éireann — 2022-04-06
============================================================

Richard Boyd Barrett (PBP), Dún Laoghaire

I thank the Regional Group for bringing forward this motion on an incredibly important subject, that is, the frankly scandalous situation around vacant and derelict properties and vacant sites that could be used to address the severe and disastrous housing and homelessness crisis we are facing. We support the vast majority of measures that the motion proposes. There are a couple of things with which we disagree but we do not always agree on everything.
