I have no function in the operational matters of the Private Residential Tenancies Board (PRTB), an independent statutory body established under the Residential Tenancies Act 2004. While the PRTB received Exchequer funding for a number of years, it has operated on a self-financing basis since 2010. The Table outlines the Exchequer funding received by the PRTB from 2004 -2009.

Details of the Board's income and expenditure are published in their annual reports and accounts which are available on the PRTB website www.prtb.ie. The most recently available annual report and accounts relate to 2010. The annual reports contain a wide range of statistics including data on dispute resolution figures.

I have no function in the operational matters of the Private Residential Tenancies Board, an independent statutory body established under the Residential Tenancies Act 2004. Accordingly, it would be inappropriate for me to comment on the specifics of any individual case.
