Taoiseach Micheal Martin has said the only way the Government can effectively deal with soaring rent costs “is by supply of new housing.”
A recent Daft.ie report revealed rents across the country rose by 12% in comparison to this time last year hitting an average monthly cost of €1,567.
Renting in the capital now costs on average €2,100 per month - jumping by 10% in a year.
