Financial Resolutions 2023 - Financial Resolution No. 4: General (Resumed) (11 Oct 2023)

Eoin Ó Broin: It is telling that the Minister, in his five-minute contribution, spent only two minutes outlining his budget measures and three minutes attacking the Opposition. That is two minutes of more empty promises that will be unfulfilled and three minutes of deliberate misrepresentations of Sinn Féin's position. The reason, of course, is that yesterday we learned the emperor has no clothes....

The spirit in which we decided to hold this meeting was not necessarily to give anybody a hard time for the discrepancy but obviously it is a matter on which we are keenly interested to get more clarity. We really wanted to be helpful as opposed to adversarial, so my questions are very much in that vein....

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Analysis of Private Rental Sector Discrepancies: Discussion (10 Oct 2023)

Eoin Ó Broin: On that point, when one compares the registration of AHB tenancies, for example, versus the self-declaration of AHB tenants in the census, there could be as much as a 10,000-unit gap in that, which would account of a very large portion of the 54,000. Is that something that can be looked at in the piece of work from November? Is that Mr. Halpin's intention?
