Sinn Féin calls for support on motion as Government warned of 'tsunami' of evictions 

Sinn Féin's Eoin Ó Broin said he believed the eviction ban vote would be 'very, very tight'

Sinn Féin housing spokesperson Eoin Ó Broin said his party's motion would send a 'strong signal to Government' and would put pressure on them to reverse the decision to end the eviction ban.

Sinn Féin housing spokesperson Eoin Ó Broin issued a “last-minute” plea to independent TDs and Government backbenchers on Tuesday to support the party’s motion on extending the no-fault eviction ban.

“If you don’t want homelessness to increase significantly in April, May and June, then vote with us in this motion,” he said ahead of the Dáil debate on the motion on Tuesday evening.
