I move:

That leave be granted to introduce a Bill entitled an Act to amend the Residential Tenancies Act 2004 so as to provide for the payment of deposits to the Private Residential Tenancies Board in respect of tenancies required to be registered under Part 7 of that Act; to require further that payments of supplementary welfare allowance under the Social Welfare Acts in respect of rental payments shall be paid only in respect of a tenancy registered with the Board; and to provide for connected matters.

Since this is a Private Members' Bill, Second Stage must, under Standing Orders, be taken in Private Members' time.
