Social housing probationary tenancies
Willie O’Dea asked whether the promised 12-month probationary period for social tenants engaging in antisocial behaviour had been introduced; the Taoiseach said he would find out.
It is probably delayed in the Christmas post. The Taoiseach has not yet got back to me.
In the section on housing in the programme for Government, the Government promised to introduce a probationary period for new tenants in social housing. If they engaged in antisocial behaviour during this period of 12 months, their tenancy was to be automatically terminated. Will the Taoiseach confirm whether this has been introduced because to my knowledge, it is certainly not operating in Limerick?
