That makes sense. I compliment the research that was done. It was funded by the RTB and the ESRI. Some 100,000 tenancies were looked at and a report on the private rental market was published last month. Dr. Byrne had it in a nutshell when he talked about the property price register. There has to be some way for us to capture this information. As legislators, we need this kind of information. We rely on people in the sector to provide us with data on these matters so that we can formulate policies accordingly. Perhaps that is something the CSO and the RTB could give consideration to as they continue to collaborate.
