I spoke to the director of RTB, Ms Carroll, who said she would get back to me on this issue, but I did not hear from her on the formula the RTB uses to calculate the average rent. I know it is a complicated issue. I have discussed it with the ESRI as well. I am not being critical of what was said, but the point is that 15 areas were recommended, but County Louth was not included.
