The Minister referred to the RTB figures which indicated that there were 3,800 rent warning notices and 1,122 notices to quit issued from August 2020 to May 2021 working their way through the system. There are concerns, not just from Sinn Féin but from other political parties and Threshold, that we could possibly see a steady increase in presentations of homelessness. This amendment is designed to ensure these people are protected.
