The revised scheme of letting priorities submitted by Dublin City Council has been the subject of ongoing discussions between my Department and the city council. A recent meeting was held at official level to progress matters further. A decision will be made on the matter as soon as possible.

Since August 1986, local authorities have had full discretion in drawing up and reviewing their rent schemes for local authority dwellings. Circular HRT 6/86 specified that rent schemes drawn up in accordance with the circular would be regarded as approved for the purposes of the housing regulations 1980, as amended. Accordingly, my Department does not approve individual rent schemes or maintain a comprehensive list of all such schemes. I intend, however, that my Department will request local authorities to ensure that their rent schemes are readily accessible and available for viewing on their websites.
