Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government

Housing and Rental Market: Discussion

9:30 am

Mr. Richard Shakespeare:

It is about gathering and getting the right data. We will investigate whether we can get information from the PRTB and the residential property authority to see how things have moved on and what has happened in the sector. We will then cross-reference it with what comes from Airbnb. There is an absence of detailed information so it is difficult to give members any assurances about what is happening.
