‹ Order of Business Social housing regulation Bills
Summary
Ray Butler asks when two housing miscellaneous-provisions Bills will strengthen social-housing regulation; the Tánaiste expects No. 1 this year and No. 2 next year.
When will the housing (miscellaneous provisions) (No. 1) Bill and the housing (miscellaneous provisions)(No. 2) Bill to further strengthen the regulatory framework of social housing be brought forward? We saw the documentary shown the other night. Many counties, including County Meath, do not have ghost estates and housing waiting lists are very long. We have 7,000 to 8,000 people on housing waiting lists from as far back as 2007. I would like to see houses being bought or built.
