Eviction Nation: Evictions in Ireland from 2015 to 2024

Evictions are one of the most harmful features of the current housing crisis in Ireland, causing a vast amount of hardship and disruption amongst tenants and working class communities. But in order to resist evictions we first need to know who is responsible and how they operate.

Eviction Nation provides a detailed investigation of evictions in Ireland over the past decade, including who is responsible and how they get away with it. It provides resources which can be used to resist evictions and exposes the landlords, investors and speculators responsible for the eviction crisis.

Drawing on records of disputes dealt with by the Residential Tenancies Board, the report provides new insights regarding both legal and illegal evictions and the failures of regulation and enforcement that allow them to take place on such a widespread scale.

It also includes illustrated profiles of ten of the country’s most prolific evictors, describing who they are and how they operate. All proceeds from the sale of the report will go to support the ongoing work of the Community Action Tenants Union Ireland (CATU).
