"The new housing plan highlights the key priorities in delivering more housing for Co Cavan."
That's according to Fine Gael Senator Joe O'Reilly.
Senator O'Reilly believes the measures in the new housing plan will have tangible benefits and will lead to a significant increase in the construction of homes for people throughout Cavan.
He says the new plan will give certainty and protection to renters through national rent controls, publishing a rent price register and strengthening the regulation of the short-term letting sector.
Senator O'Reilly says this plan ensures that the State will do more in housing, but it will also empower the private sector to further play a critical part in delivery.
When asked if he thought Government's aim to deliver 300 thousand homes by 2030 was realistic, he said while it's "ambitious" it "can be done."
