I am aware that 19 applications for CRVs in respect of houses in Griffith Court, Dublin 3, were rejected in November 1980. This arose from the fact that these applications fell to be considered under section 18 of the Housing (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act, 1979, which prohibits the granting of a CRV where the sale of a house has been completed prior to the application for the CRV being made. As the sales had been completed in the case of these houses, the applications were rejected.
