Vol. 246 No. 12

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Ground Rents Purchase.

83.

asked the Minister for Local Government if he will consider introducing amending legislation to the Landlord and Tenant (Ground Rents) Act, 1967, to enable tenants who are purchasing Dublin Corporation dwellings to buy out the ground rents of same.

This matter is under consideration in my Department in the light of the recommendation made in the second report of the Landlord and Tenant Commission. In the meantime, where a housing authority are prepared to sell the fee simple interest to a tenant-purchaser subject to reasonable conditions, including conditions as to price and the use of the dwelling as a residence, I will be willing to consider their proposals.
