Minister for Housing Darragh O’Brien has said that an evictions ban, signed off by Government today, will protect people during the winter months, whilst also respecting the rights of property owners.
The eviction ban will mean that notices issued from November 1 to March 31, 2023, cannot be implemented until April.
Cabinet has recognised the current “exceptional” times the country is experiencing with this decision, Darragh O’Brien said, with “severe pressure” on emergency accommodation.
