I welcome everybody to this meeting with the Residential Tenancies Board, RTB. From the board, I welcome Mr. Owen Keegan, interim director, Ms Louise Loughlin, deputy director, and Ms Lucia Crimin, deputy director. The relevant papers have been circulated to members.

Before we proceed to the discussion with the Residential Tenancies Board, we have a little committee business to deal with. Members will be aware that we were issued a briefing note and a request to waive pre-legislative scrutiny on the Residential Tenancies (Amendment) Bill 2024, which predominantly relates to student accommodation. We received a written briefing on that. I propose that the committee agrees to waive pre-legislative scrutiny on the Residential Tenancies (Amendment) Bill 2024. Is that agreed? Agreed.
