My Department is currently developing Heads for a new Housing Bill that will, among other things, provide for a revised procedure to replace section 62 of the Housing Act, 1966, thus enabling housing authorities to recover possession of their dwellings from households engaged in anti-social behaviour . I am also examining the scope for strengthening, in the Bill, the excluding order powers of housing authorities in respect of such behaviour. Government approval to the drafting of the Bill will be sought as soon as possible.
