At Sligo County Council, Councillor Ann Higgins proposed a motion to tackle the severe student housing crisis. She urged the council to advocate for rent limits and stronger rules for private rentals. Students face sky-high rents, unstable options, and even sleep in cars. Councillors rallied behind the idea, noting the competition with families for housing and the need for more protections. Practical solutions included building dedicated student housing and improving early morning train links. The focus: expediting suitable housing to keep students in school and out of dire straits.
