The month has seen great progress in Rán An Dálach's Drop the Rent Hikes campaign, with Dublin City Council councillors voting to review the hikes, followed by DCC's Housing and Social Inclusion SPC and the Central Area Committee voting to drop them entirely!
The fight goes on however in the lead up to the budget due in November, so we are not relenting in mobilising tenants against rent increases in a cost of living crisis. Tenants in Dolphin House this week were unanimous that they had not seen any evidence of the supposed maintenance improvements promised, and were resolved that the rents must come down. We won't stop until they have.
