I thank the witnesses for their presentations. I had a chance to listen in on some of it and read over documents as well. I will try not to go back over too much old ground. The rent pressure zones, RPZs, in particular are large and are almost like a blunt instrument approach. There is such variety across the RPZ, from the edge of Cork city in Ovens right out to Gougane Barra which is in the same electoral area in Macroom. If it is not to be determined according to RPZs, do the witnesses have a view on whether there some better way of doing it or a variation on that? I would be interested to hear.

Bhí an ISCF ag plé cheana féin agus ag lorg go mbeadh clárú ar fáil. Anois, tá dréacht anseo os ár gcomhair. Cén deacracht atá ag na finnéithe leis? An bhféadfaidís míniú a thabhairt air sin? Cad í an fhadhb go díreach? Maidir leis na RPZs, tá an-chuid acu mór fairsing agus ag síneadh ó bhruachbhailte ar imeall na cathrach siar go dtí, cur i gcás, Guagán Barra. Bheadh éileamh difriúil ar thithíocht agus brú difriúil sa dá áit.

Conas a dhéanfadh na finnéithe é sin a láimhseáil? An bhfuil aon mholadh acu mar gheall air sin? Má thagann an reachtaíocht seo isteach agus má bhrúnn sí daoine amach as Airbnb agus mar sin de, an bhfuil an margadh eile, sé sin, an margadh fadtéarmach, tarraingteach? Cad a thabharfadh daoine sa treo sin? Is the long-term market attractive to hosts? What would make it attractive to some of them?
