The figures the Senator is seeking would be useful. I can go back to the Department and look for them. I am sure all those data and figures are available and that they would be useful to Members. I will ask the Department to provide them via the RTB, which might be useful. The additional resources that have been provided, given the enhanced functions of the RTB, are substantial. It may take considerable time to see the impact of those resources, given the complexity of the issues between tenants and landlords and the additional supports the Minister, Deputy Darragh O'Brien, has put in place to protect tenants' rights.We are keen to ensure that both tenant and landlord are protected in the system and the RTB is there to perform that function. We can certainly look for that data and send it on to the Senator.
