Challenges Facing Providers of Tourist Accommodation in Ireland: Discussion
Mr. Paul Kelly:
We have had, but not recently. There is very high compliance with the scale of charges. For example, we have conducted 268 spot checks since the start of the year. We found four incidences within those 268 where prices were being charged in excess of the scale of charges. In terms of our investigation, they were genuine mistakes from reputable providers. We have written to them and highlighted that.
