Emmet Stagg (Kildare North, Labour)

The Taoiseach and the Minister for Finance will be aware that some property management companies have collapsed. People who live in such accommodation cannot find anybody to whom they can make the required payments. There is a lean on their title which they cannot clear and therefore they cannot sell their homes when necessary. The situation is a mess. I understand that the legislative committee met recently and the Taoiseach promised he would examine the matter urgently. I understand the complexity of the issue, as the Taoiseach has regularly told us. The Taoiseach also said he would consider whether to introduce one Bill or three Bills. Perhaps he could let us know if the legislative committee has provided some information on that.
