Clare TD Claims "Policy Has Worked" Following Blocking Of Bulk Sale Of Homes

A Clare TD is claiming Government policy "has worked" following the blocking of hundreds of houses from bulk sale. Over the past five years, 836 homes in Clare have been prevented from sale to a single purchaser, following changes to the planning permission system in 2021. Nationally, almost 64,000 units have been granted planning permission with conditions prohibiting bulk purchase. Meelick Fianna Fáil Deputy Cathal Crowe believes it's been a positive intervention.
