Joint Oireachtas Committee on Finance, Public Expenditure and Reform, and Taoiseach

Investment Funds: Discussion

Mr. Dermot Sreenan:

The court mentor report and what I was speaking about previously relating to possession orders in the courts; it was not necessarily related to evictions. We would be concerned about the number of clients that are presenting to us now where they say they have experienced an increase in accommodation costs, which was 46%, according to our cost-of-living survey. When the eviction ban is lifted, one would presume that it would lead to problems with people not being able to pay their rent or having built up rent arrears.
