There are no proposals to bring further legislative proposals forward at the moment in relation to the operation of the rental market while it should be noted that the operation of the rental market and the Residential Tenancies Acts 2004-2022 are kept under constant review. In this regard, my Department has commenced work on an overall review of the private rented sector as committed to under Action 2.1 of the Housing for All Action Plan Update (November 2022), a copy of which can be accessed on my Department’s website at the following link: www.gov.ie/en/publication/da0d1-action-plan-update-and-q3-2022-progress-report/.
