Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald has said her party will on Tuesday move a motion in the Dáil to extend the eviction ban until January 2024.

It places renewed pressure on the Government as Green Party TDs Neasa Hourigan and Patrick Costello have called for the moratorium on evictions to continue.
