Galway West TD Catherine Connolly has demanded clarity from the Taoiseach over mixed messages on the Government's Tenant in Situ scheme.

Deputy Connolly said the Department of Housing has told Galway City Council the scheme is currently suspended.
But, she said, the Department itself is saying it is not - and she asked Michéal Martin for clarity.

He replied after Deputy Connolly told the Dáil that 11 tenants are currently at risk of homelessness if the scheme doesn't come through.
