Pity some tenants can't be fined for being utter shytes.

Absolutely, the whole thing is a nightmare.

She mightn't be out of the woods yet, especially after going on national radio to brag about breaking the law.

Think the tenants have 6 months to go to the PRTB....hope this was more than 6 months ago....

I'd say she knows this though - it sounds like she know the rules and she knows what she did was illegal but was unfortunately left with no choice.

How has she 5 properties and no pension, smell of BS

Well she should sell it now - I believe properties in Dublin are selling

Its much better that Shatters €70k (taxpayers money) goes directly to Jack and Jill rather than back into the system where it could go into the black hole that is the HSE.

He's having a parting shot at his frenemies in government there.

I totally sympathise with the ostensible raison d'etre for the PRTB, in that some landlords are utter shytes with ratholes most rats would turn their noses up at, but there are plenty of decent ones and they get tarred with the same brush. Similarly on the tenants' side.

I've no issues with what Shatter has done, but Joe of course tries to put his own derogatory slant on it off course.

If only Joe had mooted the idea - he's kicking himself now.

Don`t understand, Shatter gets 70k, donates it, surely he would still have to pay the tax on it..

Not great, but very clever, with what hes done with the money, still his involvement in the whole garda debacle was ludicrous.....

I don't see anything wrong with what he has done. Jack and Jill are probably the most deserving charity out there.!

Does Shatter get a tax refund for donating to charity? I'm not up-to-date on the legislation

A charitable donation would get the charity the full amount, I think, and isn't there a kickback from the Revenue?

Better check that Shatter isn't on the board of J&J.

Third party insurance is part of the road tax - you have to have your car taxed
