Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Implementing Housing for All: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Sonya Kavanagh:

There is 100% vacancy relief, which was confirmed at our budget meeting yesterday. We have given a commitment to councillors that we will look at a similar type of process, to reduce the vacancy relief and offer some form of an incentive for property owners. We will be doing something similar.
