I wish to ask about the proposed landlord and tenant Bill. There is a need to address deficiencies that exist between landlords and tenants, including deficiencies with the Private Residential Tenancies Board. In south Kildare currently, a private tenant is renting from a landlord who does not live in the area. There are also serious anti-social behaviour issues. Neighbours who have been greatly impacted upon by this are not party to the tenancy and do not seem to have any form of redress.

There is no date fixed for the landlord and tenant legislation. Anti-social behaviour is something that all Deputies come across from time to time in their constituencies. A report to the Garda is the first port of call. In addition, the Residential Registration Board takes complaints.
