Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Dereliction and Vacancy: Discussion
Cian O'Callaghan (Dublin Bay North, Social Democrats) | Oireachtas source
There is just a frustration. I am sure I am not the only public representative who has reported these long-term neglected vacant houses, which are very unfair on neighbours. We have reported those properties for years. It is not the case that Dublin City Council is not aware of them. Given that it has not been able to resolve them through different activation measures over the years, you would think the council would be crying out for the CPO process at this point. Its CPO target seems incredibly low, given the housing crisis we have.
