Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Social Protection: Rent Supplement: Discussion (10 Jun 2015)

Denis Naughten: I want to raise an issue with the Department of which I have personal experience and one which departmental officials are screaming about to have addressed but the door is being closed in their faces. Athlone has a student population which means there is limited availability of accommodation. It is equally as bad as in any other city, a point which is not recognised by the Department. The...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Social Protection: Rent Supplement: Discussion (10 Jun 2015)

Denis Naughten: The frustrating thing about the rent caps is that they are far too low. Homelessness was traditionally a city problem, and when families are being left homeless in rural counties like Roscommon, something is seriously wrong. That is what I am dealing with at the moment. There are crisis situations for families trying to get accommodation in the first place. To give one example, a young...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport and Communications: Potential Impacts of Hydraulic Fracturing: Environmental Protection Agency (10 Jun 2015)

Denis Naughten: I thank the representatives from the EPA for coming before the committee. I have an interest in this matter. The main focus is on Leitrim and Fermanagh but the former shares a border with north Roscommon. If fracking is to take place, it probably will be expanded outwards because the geology of north Roscommon is very similar to that of Leitrim and the entire Lough Allen basin. ...

Denis Naughten: Following on from the issue raised by Deputy Michael Moynihan, speaking not with my political hat on but as a former scientist, the EPA, Queen's University, the British Geological Survey, UCD and the University of Ulster are all putting their names on the line. If they cannot stand over the research that is produced or if somebody knocks a hole in the research after it is published, their...

Other Questions: Unfinished Housing Developments (11 Jun 2015)

Denis Naughten: I would not be comfortable sitting, a Cheann Comhairle. As the Minister of State will know, sadly, I come from the capital of the country when it comes to unfinished housing estates with four times the national average. Under section 180 of the Planning and Development Act 2000, an estate can be taken in charge through two mechanisms. Either the developer can make a request or the...

Other Questions: Unfinished Housing Developments (11 Jun 2015)

Denis Naughten: When the Minister of State is responding, he might address the question I have asked. Will he revert back to the original legislation? I bring a second issue to the attention of the Minister of State on the taking-in-charge process. I refer to the drawdown of bonds where the developer is gone and the estate is incomplete. In a number of instances in my part of the country, insurance...

Other Questions: Unfinished Housing Developments (11 Jun 2015)

Denis Naughten: I have no difficulty with the local authorities living up to their responsibilities. However, in a large number of estates in counties Galway and Roscommon, the developer is gone and is not to be found. When the planning permission was granted, IBRC, which is owned by the State, put bonds in place for some of these developers. Now this State agency is not honouring these bonds. The...
