Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Analysis of Private Rental Sector Discrepancies: Discussion (Resumed)

3:00 pm

Ms Rosemary Steen:

That is an important aspect. Irish communities are very supportive of family relationships, particularly in rural Ireland. Co-locating on sites is something that would have happened way back in terms of the way families operate. We need to be respectful of those arrangements because they are not tenancies under the Act currently. That may be a valid part of the story around the Irish housing sector. We have to respect that this is the way those arrangements operate and that is the way it is.
