Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Analysis of Private Rental Sector Discrepancies: Discussion
Ms Lucia Crimin:
Do not press me on a date but we need to be responsible as well. People could potentially draw false or inaccurate conclusions if we publish the size of the register without having full knowledge of how the register is behaving. That would be a very irresponsible thing for a body like the RTB to do. It is our full intention to promote full transparency of our data, and I am very much in favour of doing so, but we must do it in a responsible way and at a time that is right. “At the earliest possible opportunity” is the answer I will give the Deputy.
