Moving on to housing, sometimes people are bidding for unsuitable properties due to unclear or exaggerated advertisements, which is something the commission has alluded to before. Delays in conveyancing were mentioned and to which others referred to. One thing that caught my eye was that an estate agent, if a question is asked by a potential purchaser, should publish that question or answer somewhere. I could see that would be quite easy to append onto the estate agent's site, daft.ie or myhome.ie. Is there any progress in that regard? Does it require legislative change?
