Emmet Stagg (Kildare North, Labour)

A number of Deputies in the previous Dáil repeatedly raised the issue of unregulated management companies for housing estates. The Government promised a raft of legislation involving a number of Departments to deal with this. The companies are springing up like mushrooms in a field of horses and they are abusing residents and tenants because they are not regulated. High charges and no services is the general rule. Will the Taoiseach clarify the Departments involved and when we can expect legislation?
