Budget 2022 did nothing for renters and I cannot say that is surprising. This place does nothing for renters, be they students, families or pensioners. The Minister told us not to judge him hastily. He told us to be patient. He told us Housing for All, which is the grand policy and his grand plan, would be the means to turn things around. It is hard to tell when exactly Eoghan Murphy's term as Minister's ended and the present Minister's one began because there is no difference. Maybe there is a difference, because I do not recall Eoghan Murphy tying rents to inflation at a time of rising inflation. Some bright idea that was.
