Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

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

Mr. Liam Smyth:

You only get this right if you are selling. The exemption that we were talking about concerned gifting, which is not selling, so this exemption is not needed. In a gifting scenario, you would not be serving a notice of termination based on sale.
