Yesterday it emerged that considerable funding is needed in Gallery Quay in the docklands, purchased by Túath Housing, to refurbish homes purchased which were not properly built. Many homes around the country could be in the same position and voluntary housing bodies could face serious financial problems as these are discovered. Tenants need to know where they stand when they are left without a home by one of the main prongs of Government housing policy. Will the forthcoming housing (miscellaneous provisions) Bill provide protection for these tenants of voluntary housing schemes?
