Opposition TDs are calling for a review of rents charged for State-owned housing in the Phoenix Park. Retired civil servants are paying substantially reduced rents to continue living in those properties. The Office of Public Works (OPW) manages the properties on behalf of the State. The OPW reports that annual rents range from €670 to €4,160. Tenants include retired staff and widowed spouses of workers who had been required to reside in the park as part of their employment. The rent levels have prompted political scrutiny and calls for review.
