Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

General Scheme of the Residential Tenancies (Right to Purchase) Bill: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Catherine Comer:

No, this is specifically if it was one or two dwellings in the same property. A house is different. This is within a particular property. Another case is where one dwelling is divided in two, where the landlord might reside in one part.

The other one is where a property is subject to an enforcement agreement. I know there were some questions about partial and full consideration. I might get my colleague, Mr. Smyth, to look at that. This is the benefit of the drafting process. We were trying to cater for certain gifting requirements and then, when we talked to the drafters, we were trying to be as comprehensive as we could be during the preparation of the scheme. However, as we go through it, we see that some things are not required. I might let Mr. Smyth comment further.
