An MEP for this region has called for the urgent reforms of the judicial process involved in applying for a domestic violence court order. Figures released under the Freedom of Information act to Cynthia Ní Mhurchú show that 536 people applications were made in Clare in 2023, with just 54% were granted, down from a 56% rate in 2022. The Ireland South MEP believes a large proportion victims withdraw their applications due to high levels of coercive control experienced in court, calling for the introduction of more consultation rooms for victims within district courts. She says most courtroom scenarios are not supportive to taking effective action on the matter.

An MEP for this region fears proposed legislation aimed at curbing the number of short-term lets in the market will result in more vacant properties. The Short-Term Letting Bill would require accommodation providers looking to make their properties available for 21 days or less to seek special planning permission and register with Fáilte Ireland. The Irish Self-Catering Federation is seeking a derogation within the legislation allowing existing short-term let providers to continue operating. Ireland South Fianna Fáil MEP Cynthia Ní Mhurchú says although the bill is well-intentioned, it won't necessarily lead to increased supply in the private housing market.
