Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2014: Committee Stage
2:00 pm
Jan O'Sullivan (Limerick City, Labour) | Oireachtas source
I am willing to do so if people feel it is necessary. I will certainly look at it. I know from my experience, and discussions we have had in the Dáil, that public representatives frequently accompany somebody to a housing department, as do people from voluntary housing associations and other people whom a tenant trusts. If there are suggestions this might not be facilitated I am willing to issue guidance to local authorities. I give the Senator an undertaking that I will examine doing so and I welcome the fact that on this basis she will withdraw the amendments.
