Joan Burton (Dublin West, Labour)

I ask the Minister for Finance — the previous Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform — what the timeframe is for legislation relating to property management companies. This issue is very difficult for tens of thousands of people who are in properties subject to property management companies. They cannot even address matters where there are serious defects in a property, as there are in many such properties. These people have no legal remedy to take control of the management company and get work done. They are also being charged exorbitant fees.
