I have recently announced my intention to review aspects of the Residential Tenancies Acts with a view to considering the scope for further improvements to the legislative framework within which the Private Residential Tenancies Board (PRTB) operates, which would support the achievement of additional operational efficiencies by the Board in the delivery of its functions. My Department is currently undertaking the necessary preparatory work for this review which I hope will yield preliminary outcomes by the autumn of 2009.
