Amharc ar fhreagraThe Residential Tenancies Act 2004 regulates the tenant-landlord relationship in the private rented residential sector and the Act provides that landlords in the sector must apply to register the tenancy of a dwelling with the Private Residential Tenancies Board (PRTB). I have no function in the operational matters of the PRTB which is an independent statutory body established under the Residential Tenancies Act. The PRTB publishes tenancy registrations statistics in its Annual Reports which are available on its websitewww.prtb.ie and the most recent report relates to 2010.
