Recent Trends in the Private Rental Sector: Residential Tenancies Board
Ms Caren Gallagher:
On the requirement the Deputy mentioned, since July a landlord is obliged to send a copy of the notice of termination to the RTB. We will be reporting on those, in terms of the reasons given. On the validity of notices, subjection to correction, we do not validate those. If a tenant has reason to believe there is an issue with the notice, he or she can come to the RTB and raise a dispute on the validity of the notice with the landlord. The RTB, through the dispute resolution service, can then find the notice invalid. If it is found invalid, that will be the outcome of the dispute the tenant takes.
