The number of eviction notices issued last year could reach 10,000 – as the opposition warns there will be a “tsunami” of them this month.
It could mean around 27,000 people being thrown on to the streets. But Taoiseach Leo Varadkar and several ministers were defiant yesterday on not reintroducing the ban that will expire on March 31.
New figures released by the Residential Tenancies Board yesterday showed 4,741 Notices of Termination were issued between July and September of last year. This compares with 1,132 from January to March and 1,666 from April to June 2022.
