another event in 2 days

The Feasta Housing/Land Discussion Group will have its inaugural meeting on
Tuesday October 28th at 7.30.pm at the Feasta office at 158 Lr Rathmines
Road. Dublin 6.

FEASTA HOUSING/LAND DISCUSSION GROUP

Rampant inflation in land and house prices has been a defining
characteristic of Ireland's 'Tiger Economy'. This trend has in several ways
been beneficial for the Government parties, for developers, landowners,
mortgage lenders, estate agents, private sector landlords and many property
owners. At the same time the younger first-time buyer, tenants and the poor
have suffered. Many young families are now heavily indebted for cheaply
built houses located far from their workplace and from public/community
facilities. Tenants are also paying exorbitant rents to live near their
college or place of employment. Though much has been written about the
housing crisis our policy makers and mainstream commentators have little to
offer in terms of solutions it would seem.
The Feasta housing/land group has been established by members determined to
address the complex challenge of housing provision in Ireland. The group
aims to apply insights from the New Economics, including environment taxes,
and to develop proposals for housing policies which are sustainable, viable
and socially just.

The Agenda includes;
(1) Discussion of Aims and Objectives,
(2) Review and debate on Policy Proposal for Social Housing by Emer O
Siochriu.
(3) Open Discussion and AOB.
