The Senator stated that he is not an expert on the Berlin rental market, yet seemed to have a prepared comment on the Supreme Court ruling. It is probably convenient not to have information on the Berlin situation because the fact of the matter is that the decisions that were made by the left-wing Berlin Government resulted in a more than 50% reduction in the number of rental properties. While it is convenient not to know anything about it, those are the facts and nobody can dispute them. We have to base what happens in Ireland on the evidence that presents itself. Where best to look, only at our near neighbours in Germany.
