Priory Hall evacuees may be forced to pay rent

SIX-YEAR-OLD Oisin Daly has full faith Santa will find his temporary address away from his Priory Hall home but his parents only wish they could have as much belief in the Government, local authority and justice system.

Oisin’s family are among the 240 residents evacuated from the north Dublin apartment complex condemned as a fire hazard and left in limbo with remedial works abandoned by the bust builder who had been ordered by the courts to put things right.

Today they will find out if Dublin City Council will continue to pay their rent at the alternative temporary accommodation where they have staying for the past six weeks.
