    "Simon Coveney (Cork South Central, Fine Gael)
    Link to this: Individually | In context | Oireachtas source

    I propose to take Questions Nos. 471, 496 and 524 together.

    The Repair and Leasing Scheme (RLS) has been developed to assist private property owners and local authorities or Approved Housing Bodies (AHBs) to harness the accommodation potential that exists in certain vacant properties across Ireland. The scheme was launched in Waterford and Carlow in early October 2016, on a pilot basis, and it is my intention that the scheme will be available nationally by April 2017. "

    Also Check the FAQ here:

    Seems not all properties are eligible...

    It is the ministers 'intention' to roll out in April 2017.

    Have a look at this recent thread too:

    Consider carefully before taking the council scheme route. You'll need to arm yourself with a lot more facts and research from searching boards and other sources.
