Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 29 June 2017
292. Deputy Robert Troy asked the Minister for Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government his plans to introduce a scheme whereby all local authority housing would have chimneys cleaned on a biannual basis in the interest of safety. [30655/17]
View answerThe cleaning of chimneys in local authority properties is a matter for the relevant local authority and as such I have no direct role in the matter.
I understand that, in general, the local authority's tenants' handbook would cover this issue in terms of the responsibility of tenants for the cleaning of chimneys.
