It is clear that the Government\u2019s housing plan is a failure, but it is renters and those hoping to buy a home who are bearing the cost<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

The latest rent report from Daft.ie highlights\u00a0yet again the Government’s failure to tackle the housing crisis as rents are driven to unprecedented highs, according to Social Justice Spokesperson Holly Cairns.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a devastating report and shows the depths of the rental disaster. Average rents around the country are now more than \u20ac1,600 while average rents in Dublin are now an eye-watering \u20ac2,170.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is unsustainable. Extortionate rents are driving ordinary workers to the brink. This is especially true given the price of everything else \u2013 energy, food and fuel \u2013 is also skyrocketing in the midst of a worsening cost-of-living crisis.<\/p>\n

\u201cEach new Daft report show rents are being driven to unprecedented highs while supply is slumping to record lows. It is clear that the Government\u2019s housing plan is a failure, but it is renters and those hoping to buy a home who are bearing the cost.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen will the Government admit that its housing policies are making the rental crisis worse, not better, and outline what it intends to do to address what is now a societal catastrophe?\u201d<\/p>\n
