The Government has been urged to stop leaking trial balloons on its plans for mica redress.
Deputy Thomas Pringle said mica-affected homeowners have waited long enough.
Deputy Pringle said: “Stop leaking and sort it.”
The deputy had also slammed the Government for failing to include mica redress in the Finance Bill, saying, “What more needs to be discussed other than the fact that 100 per cent redress for these families is necessary?” He raised the issue in the Dáil last week.
He added “The fact that the redress scheme has not been included in the budget or in this Finance Bill is truly appalling.”
Representatives of mica-affected homeowners had been told that an enhanced scheme would go before ministers on November 9th, though a recent news report had stated that was not the case.
Deputy Pringle said: “They can’t keep kicking this down the road. The Government needs to come out with their plans sooner rather than later, and nothing short of 100 per cent redress will address the situation for affected homeowners.”
