Deputy Scanlon calls for Minister Murphy to publish the 2016 Tenant Purchase Scheme report



A local Sligo Leitrim TD is calling on The Housing Minister to publish the overdue 2016 Tenant Purchase Scheme report and to stop discriminating against the older communities.

Fianna Fail TD for Sligo Leitrim Eamon Scanlon is asking Minister Murphy to prioritise the publication of the report that is effecting a large number of people across the North West.

Deputy Scanlon refers to a widow who has lived in a house for 50 years, yet she is unable buy her own home:
