Joanna Tuffy (Dublin Mid West, Labour)

I move amendment No. 9:

In page 22, line 23, after "time" to insert "(whether specified or unspecified)".

On Committee Stage, the Minister stated a tenancy at will is specifically excluded from the definition of tenancy in section 11(3) which we believe is not correct. Section 11(3) allows for a leasehold estate for an uncertain term which would seem to include a tenancy at will. In any event, there is no clear policy reason to abolish a tenancy at will.
