1) Tomorrow evening we are putting forward our Anti-Eviction Bill in the Dáil. Get tweeting and get hashtagging #BanEvictions
2) The last time time this bill was put forward it lost out by one vote. It was tied and then voted down by the Ceann Comhairle. We need to put pressure on TDs to vote in favour of this bill. Send a barrage of emails to your local TDs demanding them to back the bill #BanEvictions
3) If passed this bill would act as an obstacle to Landlords in evicting tenants through various loopholes, such as Renevictions, where Landlords often cite renovating reasons as why they have to turf out tenants only to raise the rent subsequently with new tenants #BanEvictions
4) If passed this bill would place a legal onus on landlords to give tenants 6-month's rent back should they be evicting tenants on a claim that they intend to bring their family members in. This would act as a deterrent in Landlords spuriously turfing-out tenants.
