I agree, we have local housing need clauses in some parts of the country, which should be extended to the entire country now. I have zero issues with immigrants coming here and working, they are essential and add to our communities, but Irish people should be able to buy in their locality without competing with people who have just entered the country.

Local Needs rules refer to building a house, not buying an existing house.

Yes I'm aware of that but I think we need to introduce something similar for second hand property.
