Thomas Gould: I want to be really fair to the Minister of State. I know she is reading out a response she was given. It is the same response other Ministers have read out previously. She stated that she has received assurances from the Blackpool treatment centre. I have in my hand a copy of the facts and figures I obtained in the response to a parliamentary question. In January 2019, 2,399 patients...

Thomas Gould: I have the information in my hand. In addition, I rang the service when my wife and daughter had the influenza that was going around. I have been raising this issue for a year. How can a company that is getting millions of euro to provide an out-of-hours service get away with not providing that service? It closed the clinic in Kilworth. It has laid off drivers across Cork county and cut...

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Residential Tenancies Board: Discussion (2 Jul 2024)
Thomas Gould: I thank the witnesses for being here. I apologise that I have been in other meetings. Is there a need for increased visibility of the RTB dispute timelines? There have been reports that some disputed cases, including those involving serious antisocial behaviour, have taken more than six or 12 months for a determination order to be given. What does the RTB hope to do to address this timeline?

Is there a mechanism for the RTB to notify Cork City Council about these notifications and if...

Housing maintenance is a particularly problematic issue in most local authorities I talk to Sinn Féin TDs and councillors about. The council is a landlord and should be accountable to its tenants. It cannot happen overnight, but...
