Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Remediation of Dwellings Damaged by the Use of Defective Concrete Blocks Bill 2022: Discussion

Mr. Paul Forde:

I will add a little to that. The work the expert group undertook, in particular regarding the certification after remediation works, attempted to provide some additional reassurance to both the homeowners and the certifying engineer by making a second grant possible. This was also done with a very firm focus on aiding the conveyancing of the remediated properties. One of the principal targets we had in relation to the certification was that it could facilitate onward conveyancing after remediation.
