A Dublin council has voted to call on the Government to reinstate the eviction ban.
The ban, which lapses at the end of this month, prevented evictions from rental properties in Ireland. But notice could still be served on tenants with a flurry of evictions expected come April 1.
A motion was presented by Sinn Fein at tonight's meeting of Dublin City Council. The majority of members voted in favour of the motions calling for the Government to reinstate the ban.
