Rent Pressure Zones
6:00 pm
Jan O'Sullivan (Limerick City, Labour) | Oireachtas source
I raise the exclusion of the cities of Limerick and Waterford from rent pressure zones as a result of the formula used. It is over two years since the legislation passed that set up the system of identifying areas that qualify as rent pressure zones. In the past year, whether one looks at the daft.ieor RTB rent indices, Limerick city has the highest rent increases of any city in the country. They are way higher than Cork and Galway, for example. Will the Minister take action to ensure Limerick and Waterford can be included in rent pressure zones?
