Joint Oireachtas Committee on Enterprise, Tourism and Employment

General Scheme of the Short-Term Letting and Tourism Bill 2025: Discussion

2:00 am

Ms Sarah Cronin-Falvey:

The very nature of short-term rental is that it is transient and flexible. People dip in and out. There is no set data. What is available this month will change next month and next year. Its flexibility is why people embrace it as guests and as property owners. It is a good option for people. Why would you leave a house to sit idle for six months? You might as well put it up there and then go back to whatever it was you were planning on doing with it in the first place.
