The ban on evictions is set to end on March 31 but some “phased protections” will remain in place until June, Coalition leaders have agreed.

Following a lengthy meeting of party leaders and Housing Minister Darragh O’Brien, it was agreed that a detailed memo will be presented to Cabinet on Tuesday to end the ban on evictions despite appeals from homeless charities last week for the ban to remain in place.
