Prosecutions for landlord non-registration

Summary

Asked about prosecutions, the Minister reports 363 in Dublin since 1974, alongside 1,470 notices and 3,870 fines; FitzGerald questions whether the fines deter breaches.

Joseph Brennan An Ceann Comhairle Fianna Fáil

That is a different question. Question No. 12.

That is £10 fine on average per case and that is supposed to be a deterrent to breaking the law?
