Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

General Scheme of the Residential Tenancies (Right to Purchase) Bill: Discussion

Mr. Zak Murtagh:

I thank the Deputy for the insightful questions on those issues. We see this as an expansion of the ambit of the slip rule. I mentioned the legal clinics I run. In my frequent interactions with advisers in Threshold, which commonly represents for the Residential Tenancies Board, there seem to be difficulties with the slip rule as it is.
