I move amendment No. 142:

In page 35, between lines 7 and 8, to insert the following:“Report on a permanent system of rent controls and the massive expansion of social and affordable housing needed to reduce rents to affordable levels

27. The Minister for Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government is to report within three months of the enactment of the Planning and Development (Housing) and Residential Tenancies Act 2016 on the measures needed to establish a permanent system of rent controls that in combination with a massive increase in direct build and acquisition of social and affordable housing by the State would permanently reduce rents from their current unaffordable levels.”.
