Analysis of Private Rental Sector Discrepancies: Discussion
Mr. Cormac Halpin:
I would say what I said previously to Deputy Ó Broin. We take what people give us as their census response and we publish that. I would expect that as a by-product of the matching exercise that we are going to do, we will be able to identify that. We will use other sources to be able to identify that the property might be identified in other sources as having a local authority landlord whereas the census record shows that it is a private rental, and we will be able to quantify that. That is very much getting to the heart of what the matching exercise will be able to do.
