Working Group to Examine Defects in Housing

The Programme for Government sets out a number of commitments in respect of the important policy area addressing building defects. It commits to an examination of defects in housing, having regard to the recommendations of the Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing’s report, Safe as Houses?. Housing for All, the Government’s national plan on housing to 2030, reiterates this commitment.

In this context, the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage, Darragh O’Brien, TD, established a Working Group to Examine Defects in Housing.
