Speaking ahead of the meeting Committee Cathaoirleach Deputy Niamh Smyth TD said “Our meeting tomorrow will again focus on the Registration of Short-Term Tourist Letting Bill 2022. This comes after the Government tasked Fáilte Ireland to develop a registration system for Short-Term Tourist Lettings in Ireland. It is expected that the system that has been developed will provide an accurate and comprehensive register of all short-term tourist properties across the country and tomorrow’s stakeholders will give the perspective from the letting industry.
