The Residential Tenancies Board (RTB) is an independent statutory body established on 1 September 2004 under the Residential Tenancies Act 2004 and I have no function in relation to the operational matters of the Board. Consequently, my Department does not hold or collate the information requested. The Clerk of the Dáil has requested that arrangements be put in place to facilitate the provision of information by State Bodies to members of the Oireachtas. Circular LG (P) 05/16 issued on 20 September from my Department, requesting all agencies under the Department’s aegis, including the RTB, to put in place the necessary procedures to facilitate these new arrangements as soon as possible.
