Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

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

Mr. Patrick Davitt:

That is not the present scenario. The tenant does not have an option at the moment to buy the property so it is not the present scenario. The present scenario is that the property is put on the market. If the tenant wants to buy the property and they offer enough money for it, the landlord will sell it to them.
