Changes to "draconian measures" in the Fair Deal Scheme could see 8,000 homes added to the rental stock, the Housing Minister has claimed.
Darragh O'Brien said he is working with Minister of State Mary Butler to free up the homes under the scheme which provides financial support for those in need of long-term nursing home care.
