1452. Deputy Cian O'Callaghan asked the Minister for Justice the status of the proposed review of the Multi-Unit Developments Act 2011; if she will engage with residents' associations and management companies on the operation of the Act; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [43659/22]
View answerThe Multi-Unit Developments Act 2011 was enacted with the primary purposes of reforming the law relating to the ownership and management of common areas of multi-unit developments and facilitating the fair, efficient and effective management of owners' management companies (OMCs).
The Programme for Government contains a commitment to conduct a review of the existing management company legislation, to ensure that it is fit for purpose and that it acts in the best interests of residents. This is referring to the Multi-Unit Developments Act 2011.
In terms of overall policy on this review and related matters, my Department will be guided by the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage (DHLGH), and its relevant agencies.
My Department will engage with other relevant Departments in relation to taking the appropriate steps to advance this matter.
