I am aware of reports of advertisements of the nature referred to by the Deputy and he can be assured that the issue is being given immediate attention by the Government.
My colleague, the Minister for Housing, Darragh O’Brien TD has sought and received advice from the Attorney General’s office on the subject, and both of our Departments are now considering that advice to see what action is necessary to address the issue.
