Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Residential Tenancies Board: Discussion
3:00 pm
Ms Louise Loughlin:
We do not have those statistics. I think I was saying earlier that they are the applications we receive. In total last year, we received around 9,900 applications for disputes, but the number that go all the way to an adjudication hearing and result in a determination order are a good bit lower than that. A glut of people self-resolve. Just by virtue of lodging a dispute application, the case is then resolved, either by the parties talking to each other, through political representation to resolve it, or through our own early intervention service. They do not all result in full hearings.
