View answerArising from the detailed analysis provided by the Working Group referred to, which informed development of a range of proposals to establish an appropriate regulatory approach for short-term tourism-related lettings as well as identifying amendments to relevant legislation to give effect to such a regulatory regime, I am reviewing the Group's report and also examining the recommendations in the Oireachtas Committee's report on short-term lettings, and have been engaging with other relevant Ministers, in relation to the appropriate next steps in taking forward the proposed recommendations. Appropriate measures will be brought forward once that process is concluded.
