South Dublin County Council has moved to an online system for residents to report housing maintenance issues. The local authority states there are high levels of digital literacy in the county. How can people, who have not the capacity or the money to use this system, report these faults?

Can the Minister outline his views on this system? We made contact with South Dublin County Council, which advised us that a dedicated service is still available during office hours to take telephone calls relating to emergency maintenance requests from tenants who are older, who have disabilities or who have additional needs. If what Deputy Ward is saying about South Dublin County Council remains the position, he should let us know and we will follow up with it.
