Eamon Gilmore (Dún Laoghaire, Labour)

The second matter that I want to raise relates to information of which we were made aware this morning. I refer to the Private Residential Tenancies Board and the fact that 100 cases have been struck down because the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government improperly, inappropriately and, as it turns out, illegally, appointed two county councillors to the board of the Private Residential Tenancies Board.
