Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Local Government Finance: Discussion
9:00 am
Mr. Damien Geoghegan:
I concur with Mr. O'Sullivan. The proper funding should be put in place and we should be properly resourced. Deputy Cassells is dead right. We absolutely need to receive the return of budgets at municipal level. Regarding Senator O'Sullivan's point about inspections, we saw what happened in this country when we did not have inspections when buildings were being built. Now we need inspectors there to make sure the rental sector is properly overseen.
