Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Right to Housing: Discussion

Ms Aoife Kelly-Desmond:

Certainly. In 2019, there was a Oireachtas Library and Research Service report on how much legislation about which a concern was raised regarding its impact on property rights was stopped over a ten-year period. It was a significant amount. It was more than ten Bills that covered matters such as dealing with mortgage arrears, rent, the protection of families from homelessness, the eviction of people into homelessness and various other issues.
