Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Implementing Housing for All: Discussion (Resumed)
Dr. Pat Daly:
That is a fair point, as are the points made by Mr. Walsh and Mr. Grimes. While we would never say “No” to money or people, it is a case of when and how we would take them on board. There are competitive forces out there, not alone private but public, across different schemes. The point is well made. We may be looking for letting agents to come into the council. The perception of what we do and how we do it is still kind of traditional but it is changing. To get that full range, we need to bring on the new schemes.
