I have spoken with a lot of operators in Wexford as well and for a variety of reasons they are not in a position to do it. First, in many cases, the accommodation is not suitable for long-term rental, but even if it was it does not suit due to family circumstances, as outlined by Ms Casey.

I am keen to hear Threshold's view on this because there is always the fear that we are listening to the voices of the industry and people who are directly impacted. Is Threshold happy with the legislation to proceed as it is currently set out, in the absence of the planning guidelines?
