Issues Facing the Residential Rental Sector: Discussion

2:00 am

Ms Rosemary Steen:

-----approximate figure was 8,000. We have tried to break that down by county. That is why we are targeting Galway in particular as a large block of that. We have limited resources so we have to target the area we feel will deliver most. We drove a very substantial national communication around the situation in the Galway market, which was well received by the stakeholders in Galway when we met them, and there is an acknowledgment that more work needs to be done in that community to get out what is required from a landlord and tenant perspective. The Deputy will see more activity from us on that. I am very clear in my view on that.
