- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Analysis of Private Rental Sector Discrepancies: Discussion (Resumed) (15 Oct 2024)
Eoin Ó Broin: Is there any way for the CSO, perhaps as part of this exercise, to attempt to match or look at where two separate census forms were filled in for a single property to try to establish things? I appreciate that all of this is tricky. I do not mean it as a criticism in any way when I say that 47,000 "possible informal" arrangements seems potentially too large. It is worthy of interrogating...

Eoin Ó Broin: I presume it would be very time-consuming to do that.

Eoin Ó Broin: Sure. I am out of time. I will come back in on the next round.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Analysis of Private Rental Sector Discrepancies: Discussion (Resumed) (15 Oct 2024)
Eoin Ó Broin: I have one final question on the methodology just so that I am clear. Is it the case that the CSO looked at the RTB registration data - the total registration - and at the characteristics of properties that were registered, such as whether they were more likely to be urban than rural and more likely to be smaller or terraced than semi-detached, bearing in mind that the latter, obviously,...

Eoin Ó Broin: That is clear, but for the geography one and the rent price one, are they based-----

Eoin Ó Broin: Will Mr. Culhane explain in a little more detail how that worked? The two types or sets were separated out.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Analysis of Private Rental Sector Discrepancies: Discussion (Resumed) (15 Oct 2024)
Eoin Ó Broin: One of the useful things that could come out of this entire exercise, because it is important, not so much in the sense that the CSO had to do all of this hard work and then come in here to answer our questions but rather that something arises from it, is that it shows there is an argument to take a look at the question in future censuses on private rental arrangements so that, rather than...

Eoin Ó Broin: That is reasonable.

- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Analysis of Private Rental Sector Discrepancies: Discussion (Resumed) (15 Oct 2024)
Eoin Ó Broin: To labour the point - I apologise; I am a politician so that is what I do for a living - if we take the 2022 data, for example, there were 3,000 first notices. Obviously, the figure for second notices was 1,600. It would be great to know whether that means that almost half of the people who got the first notice registered and, therefore, a second notice was not needed. Likewise, for...

Eoin Ó Broin: That should be registered.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Analysis of Private Rental Sector Discrepancies: Discussion (Resumed) (15 Oct 2024)
Eoin Ó Broin: Mr. Culhane would not be making a firm comment on the issue of whether they should or should not be, based on the data the RTB has collated.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Analysis of Private Rental Sector Discrepancies: Discussion (Resumed) (15 Oct 2024)
Eoin Ó Broin: That is a reasonable proposition. That is all the more reason for the commitment that the RTB is not going to exclude those. The only reason I am saying that is because, prior to Ms Steen taking office, I had a conversation with somebody else in the RTB who said that 25,000 is actually only 10% of total rental properties, so that is good. There was a working assumption that the 47,000...
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Analysis of Private Rental Sector Discrepancies: Discussion (Resumed) (15 Oct 2024)
Eoin Ó Broin: Even if it was a percentage of those, they should not be left to one side. Ms Steen has already made it clear that the RTB is not going to do that, however, so I am satisfied with that.
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Analysis of Private Rental Sector Discrepancies: Discussion (Resumed) (15 Oct 2024)
Eoin Ó Broin: Am I right in understanding that a decision has already been taken on the housing questions for 2027 and that the question on the private rental sector will be the same as the one in the previous census?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Analysis of Private Rental Sector Discrepancies: Discussion (Resumed) (15 Oct 2024)
Eoin Ó Broin: That is all eminently sensible. When did the subgroup that Mr. Halpin mentioned consider the matter?
- Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Analysis of Private Rental Sector Discrepancies: Discussion (Resumed) (15 Oct 2024)
Eoin Ó Broin: No member of this committee should be interfering with the methodology for the census. The CSO staff are the professionals and we do not deal with the matter. However, the CSO’s exercise has thrown up some really important questions regarding our understanding of the private rental sector. If there were some way of doing what I suggest – it could be through administrative...
