Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Interim Report on Homelessness: Discussion

Mr. Pat Dennigan:

There are ways we can do it. What typically tends to happen is that private rented accommodation is not going back into the sector. At best, there is a gap period where one landlord leaves and another landlord buys the property. At worst, it moved out of the private rented sector altogether and, as a result, the supply is further reduced for people on the lowest rung of the ladder who are seeking to rent properties.
