Mr. Richard Shakespeare:

On the specific question raised by Senator Boyhan, we hope to have that piece of work completed by October 2017. It involves a joint SPC meeting from the housing, planning and economic development side of the house. The intention is to set up a cross-party working group of councillors and officials to consider proposals to be put to the Department in terms of regulation and so on.

In regard to Deputy Casey's question, I refer him to point 4 on page 7 of the PowerPoint presentation.

From drilling down into the 5,377 listings for houses and apartments recently and frequently booked, highly available and where the host has multiple listings, we estimate 10% of those are a business. Roughly speaking that comes to 540 properties.
