Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Housing Provision for Older People: Discussion

Ms Catherine Comer:

If it is okay, I will come in here, Vice Chairman. As my colleague Ms Larthwell has said, this is being considered as a Committee Stage amendment to the Regulation of Providers of Building Works Bill, which is commencing on 16 May.

In addition, it is being drafted to allow for not just private tenancies, but also local authority, approved housing bodies and other providers as well, to make it as expansive as possible. Coming back to what Deputy Ó Broin said earlier, it is to provide that choice for people and that voluntary capacity as well.
