Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Seller’s Legal Pack for Property Buyers Bill 2021: Discussion

4:00 pm

Mr. Mark Garrett:

It has the potential to do that. There are significant opportunities in this and that is the point that we are making. There is a lot there but we need to be careful and some clarity is required. We can go into detail about some of those things. We suggest the principles of this, in terms of trying to have things upfront and if the caveat emptor rule is changed in terms of people taking on that responsibility, would be a much more significant change in the overall scheme of things.
