Really excellent article from Mary Heavey of @CLMirl on the Right to Housing. A referendum on the Right to Housing "represents a crucial opportunity for the Irish people to fundamentally and radically re-shape the State’s housing policies" @HomeforGood_ irishexaminer.com/opinion/commen…

“Homelessness is a political choice – is it time to make housing a human right?” – The answers is Yes. #RightToHousing #HomeforGood @HomeforGood_ @Independent_ie independent.ie/opinion/commen…

We look forward to seeing the @HouCommission recommended wording on the #Right2Housing To be effective it must be enforceable and have regard to the State's available resources @HomeforGood_ irishtimes.com/politics/2023/…

Productive meeting yesterday evening with Head of Policy, Simon Communities and Chair of Home for Good Wayne Stanley @drurbino and @greenparty_ie members Many thanks Wayne for your valuable insight as always

Home for Good are calling for a referendum that will result in a constitutional right to housing A constitutional right to housing will balance our constitution & place onus on the State to resolve issues in our ongoing housing & homelessness crisis(2/2) homeforgood.ie/referendum/

‘Taoiseach Micheál Martin has argued the Government has been given legal advice that an eviction ban would be unconstitutional’ The current imbalance in our Constitution is blocking the State from protecting people from homelessness by eviction. (1/2) irishexaminer.com/news/arid-4097…
