Stop St Helen's Court Eviction

We, the undersigned, note:
- The tenants of St Helen’s Court are threatened with eviction by a vulture fund
- The current Notice to Quit is the fourth attempt in 3 years by vulture funds to evict these tenants
- The current vulture fund and the one that previously owned the apartments are exploiting various loop holes in the residential tenancies legislation to bully and harass these tenants
- The harassment is working and, so far, ten tenants have left the complex and found tenancies elsewhere
- The remaining ten tenants are resisting the attempt to evict them and expect a hearing in the Residential Tenancies Board in the coming weeks
We call on the Minister
- To intervene in this situation and ensure Dún Laoghaire Rathdown County Council buy the apartments to provide affordable homes for these tenants.
- Amend the current legislation to remove the loopholes that are currently being exploited by unscrupulous landlords and vulture funds.
- Initiate legislation to outlaw all economic evictions.
