As indicated in the reply to Question Nos. 270 and 275 of 14 October 2008, work is continuing to address the outstanding issues relating to the tenant purchase of local authority apartments. I hope that legislative proposals for a viable apartment sales scheme can be finalised in time for consideration during the passage of the Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Bill 2008 through the Oireachtas.
