It extends notice to quit periods. It puts in place greater protections relating to section 34. We know that the Tyrrelstown amendment, as it is colloquially known, has been tested recently and has proven to be robust, but we also know that that was as far as it could go constitutionally. We also know that the majority of landlords in the country own just one or two properties. What material impact would those changes to laws the Deputy proposes have on the landscape? I am not quite sure.
