The scramble to find emergency accommodation in time for an expected "tsunami" of homelessness has begun in Dublin.
Thousands of households are facing homelessness when the ban on no fault evictions is lifted at the end of the month. Figures released by the Residential Tenancies Board show 4,741 Notices of Termination were issued between July and September of last year.
These notices will become active when the eviction ban is lifted and the tenants will be forced to try and find new accommodation in an incredibly constrained market. Dublin City Council has been making preparations for the wave of new homeless if the ban is lifted.
