Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 28 March 2012
204 Deputy Peadar Tóibín asked the Minister for Justice and Equality if he will provide the list of bodies and individuals who have made submissions to his Department with regard to upward only rent review clauses in existing leases; if he will make the contents of these submissions available. [17029/12]
Amharc ar fhreagraWhile there was no call for formal submissions in relation to this matter, I received submissions on the general issue of upwards only rent reviews from a variety of organisations, including the Society of Chartered Surveyors, Jones Lang LaSalle, DKM Economic Consultants, Retail Ireland, Retail Excellence Ireland and the Irish Association of Investment Managers. I also received a considerable volume of correspondence from individuals and businesses who generally espoused the views of the retail sector.
I have no plans to put the contents of the submissions into the public domain.
