Spend on housing payment schemes ‘going directly to the private market’ to hit €423m
Ms Connolly said €423 million . “Just let me dwell on that figure . . . These payments are going directly to the private market that’s unsustainable, where rents are going up and up and up. Rents are absolutely unsustainable.”
“So we are at over 100,000 households,” said Ms Connolly. “We were told by the last Government that Hap was the only game in town. And when a household goes on Hap they are taken off the housing list and put on a limbo list . . . Isn’t that shocking?” He told Ms O’Connell that between 2016 and 2018 about 90,000 households had been supported in the private rented sector. She asked what would happen if Hap was cancelled.
