“These results are likely still indirectly impacted by Covid-19 public health measures along with constraints in supply and tenants choosing to stay longer in their existing tenancies,” Mr Byrne said. “In reading the Index, it is also important to note that these results only provide us with a snapshot into a small proportion of the private rental sector in Ireland.”

“The latest Rent Index, which is based on new tenancies registered with the RTB in the first quarter of 2022, shows continued growth in rents nationally with a yearly increase of 9.2%,” said Niall Byrne, RTB Director. The figures show a continued fall in the number of tenancies that were registered with the RTB in the first quarter of 2022. Some 10,414 new tenancies were registered, down 32% on the first quarter last year when 15,291 were registered.
THE rental crisis shows no signs of abating, with costs for new tenancies shooting up by 9.2pc in the first three months of this year nationally when compared to the same period last year. This is one of the largest quarterly rises on record, according to new figures from the Residential Tenancies Board (RTB).Waterford is one of 14 counties in the country with annual average rental costs of at least €1,000 per month, up 4.6%, latest figures show. The average rental cost in Waterford city for new residential tenancies now stands at €1,054. This compares with the national standardised average rent for new tenancies, which was €1,460 between January and March. That is up 3.3%, or €46 on the previous quarter. The rent index report is based on new tenancies in existing rental properties, new properties being let for the first time, and (new tenancies in properties that have not been let in the previous two years. The RTB has stressed that the rent index is not designed to provide a measure of the rents being paid by existing tenants. It is based on actual rents paid under 10,414 private tenancies which were newly registered with the RTB in the first quarter. But there has been a 32pc fall off in the number of registered tenancies used in the sample due to the exodus of landlords from the market.

“Waterford’s commitment to a proactive and dynamic approach towards sustain able social, environmental and economic development of the region is steadfast and this development plan lays the foundation for achieving these objectives,” he added. The development plan is now at the heart of a plan-led system whereby public capital invest ment programmes and priorities are aligned to support the adopt ed development strategy. This principle has been estab lished through Project ireland 2040, comprising both the National Planning Framework (NPF) as the State’s national spatial development strategy and the National Development Plan (NDP) as the capital investment programme to support delivery at all levels of the planning hierarchy. By ensuring good policy align ment with eU, national and re gional policy, the development plan can drive investment that is targeted towards identified priorities and leverage funding and partnership opportunities at a local level. The Development Plan also provides the basis on which local Area Plans will be pre pared for parts of Waterford City, Dungarvan, Tramore and other urban towns across the county over the lifetime of the plan.The Planning regulator (oPr) commended the local authority on “a coherent and appropriate strategy for the delivery of key national planning objectives, including the promotion of compact growth and town and village centre regeneration.”

Marseille airport is not big on staffing. A café there has a mi crowave oven in which custom ers heat their own food. But I must stop moaning. I have had two foreign holidays this summer and count myself very lucky. Contrary to reports and rumours, Dublin Airport was working well for both. There were no long queues. it was perfectly clean, the secu rity checks were fast and the checkers friendly. They got my luggage there and back with no problems.It’sjust that I remember an other time when air travel was dearer but much nicer. Now – in the name of prog ress or with the blame on Covid – it’s a do-it-yourself venture. A friend back from Spain once told me: “I think I did every thing but fly the plane.” Give them time and airlines might manage that trick too.

IHAD booked, online, a flight to France. I had checked-in remotely, printed off the boarding card and downloaded it to my phone as backup. With Ryanair I can check-in for both legs of a journey but this was Aer Lingus and they won’t let you check-in closer than 48 hours before departure, 24 hours for someAroundflights.that time, a message from Aer Lingus pinged on my phone. “Dear Michael,” it said. Nice to know we are on such matey first-name terms. What should I call them? Aer? Seems fair.So, “Dear Michael,” says this message from Aer. “Check-in online and save time.” The message has my flight details and booking reference number and invites me to click and check-in.
I click and I am sent to an Aer Lingus site . This one does not provide the booking reference number but requires it before I check-in. I can’t remember the six-character code so I have to close down this site and go back to Dear Michael. I write down the reference code and return to the boarding card site where I am again as sured that checking-in will save me time. I provide the reference code and several other pieces of in formation and click. But I get no further because, the site in forms me, online check-in for this flight will not open for an other four hours. But Aer, my old pal, it was you who sent me the message. You told me you would save me time, of which I have now wasted about half-an-hour. I don’t like to complain about a good friend like you, Aer. But if I can’t check-in why, in god’s name, did you send me a re quest to do so? All part of the joys of modern travel, I suppose. It used to be so simple. If I wanted to leave the country, I went to a travel agent who made the booking for me. Alternatively, I might call into the Aer Lingus office in the centre of Dublin and buy a ticket or order it by phone and have it waiting at the airport. In any event, I would pres ent the ticket at the Aer Lingus desk in Dublin Airport where it would be exchanged for a boarding pass. If I had luggage it would be checked in there and then. I would hand it over, pret ty confident that it would end up in the place I was flying to. All this would be done about 40 minutes before the flight, giving me time for a coffee or a drink at the bar. It would be served in a glass – yes, a glass made of glass – and if I had food, it would come on a plate. Today I make the booking my self, check-in online and print the boarding card. I arrive at the airport two hours early because I want to put a case in the hold. I stand at an unstaffed computer terminal, print out a luggage tag and attach it to my case which I put on a conveyor belt in the hope it will be going to the same destination as me. The amount of unclaimed luggage lying around Dublin Airport does not give me confidence. Security is working well, so I have about 90 minutes to wait for my flight. Over an hour, as it turns out, for it is delayed. I ask at a café for a glass of white wine. They only have red. It is served to me in a cardboard cup. A family ordering for chil dren is told that water is the only non-fizzy drink available. I go through Dublin Airport with minimal human contact and make none whatsoever at the other end, Marseille. There you enter France by running your passport over a scanner and presenting your face to a camera. It worked well for me but children who did not reach camera height could not get through and their agitated par ents could find no-one to help them.
It’s DIY air travel – you do everything but fly the plane

The moment that you died My heart was torn in two, One side filled with heartache The other died with you. I often lie awake at night When the world is fast asleep, and Take a walk down memory lane With tears upon my cheeks. Remembering you is easy I do it every day, But missing you is heartache That never goes away. I hold you tightly within my heart And there you will remain, Until the joyous day arrives That we shall meet again.Always remembered by you loving wife Betty. Dad is such a special word A word that brings to mind A big warm smile, A helping hand A way of being kind, Devotion to the family A word of patience too “Dad” is such a special word Because it stands for “You”.

Waterford’s dunmore Badminton Club, County winners in the recent texaco support for sport initiative, has been presented with a cheque for eUr5,000 to be used to help fund the upkeep and maintenance of its st. thomas’ premises, a former church building which has listed building status. established in 1953, dunmore Badminton Club plays an important role in its surrounding community, describing itself as ‘a friendly and social club’ delivering badminton programmes to people of all ages and from many diverse groups.
