Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

General Scheme of the Residential Tenancies (Amendment) Bill 2018: Residential Tenancies Board

Ms CaitrĂ­ona Walsh:

Sorry to interrupt Ms Carroll but when a dispute comes into us, that is one of the first things we would consider, that is, whether we have jurisdiction to deal with it or not. That is an ideal opportunity for someone who may believe that he or she is under a licence to test the waters and to see whether for all intents and purposes it is a licence or it is a tenancy being called a licence. That opportunity is there if someone wishes to test that and we certainly look at all of those cases in terms of our disputes.
