Pressure is mounting for an increase in RAS and HAP payment limits, amid concerns housing supports are no longer keeping pace with rising rents.

 

 

The calls are being made after residents of Nazareth Village in Co Sligo were told they face proposed rent increases ranging from 74% to 176%.

 

Labour Councillor Ann Higgins says the Government must increase RAS and HAP limits and introduce regular reviews to ensure they reflect current housing costs.
