Leo Varadkar (Dublin West, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

Deputy McDonald is creating the impression that 4,000 notices to quit in the past three months will result in 4,000 evictions and 4,000 more families needing emergency accommodation. That is not the case. Does the Deputy know how many new tenancies there have been in the past three months? There have been 19,000.
