Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Residential Tenancies Board: Discussion

3:00 pm

Ms Lucia Crimin:

Once again, we have a proactive approach to that. I can give the Deputy some figures to give some indication of the scale we are operating in. At the tail end of 2023, we issued just over 17,000 notices of potential non-compliance with the requirement to register. We obviously gave people some opportunity to regularise their affairs and come into compliance. When we analysed that data set again in April, the number had decreased to about 1,500. We are going through those now and undertaking much more detailed analysis to identify if they are, in fact, unregistered tenancies that should be registered or not with the RTB.
