Rent Caps Extended To Four Cork Towns

There's been a broad welcome to the news that the new system of rent caps has been extended to four towns in Cork.

Housing Minister Simon Coveney signed the orders yesterday afternoon after recommendations from the rental sector watchdog.

The towns in Cork added to the system are Ballincollig, Carrigaline, Douglas and Passage West

Minister Simon Coveney says he included the areas on foot of a detailed report from the rental sector watchdog
