I meet the chief executives of the local authorities on a regular basis, including the chief executive of Cork City Council and others throughout the country. All of our local authorities are fully tooled up to provide support for tenants. I will conclude on discussing the reason we did not extend the ban. Deputy Gould's party called for three different extension dates. Extending the eviction moratorium would make a very difficult situation in the private rental sector even worse.
