Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Right to Housing: Discussion
Mr. Wayne Stanley:
We met with the Minister on foot of the committee meeting. There was a reiteration of the Government's commitment to the right to housing and of progressing it. That is when the conversation around putting this into the commission began. That is what our conversations were around rather than the appropriateness of the wording necessarily. Our wording was part of a motion tabled by Senator Fitzpatrick that got broad cross-party support. There is certainly a political commitment to the Home for Good wording and what it is trying to achieve. The commission has to be aware of that.
