The Irish Congress of Trade Unions is organising a lunchtime rally on the housing and homeless crisis, to take place outside Leinster House on Wednesday October 3rd: 12.30-2pm. The rally is also being supported by the National Housing & Homeless Coalition, the National Women’s Council of Ireland, the Union of Students in Ireland and a wide range of housing agencies and advocates, under the umbrella of Raise the Roof.

The rally coincides with a cross-party opposition motion to be debated in the Dail on the same day. The motion is supported by Sinn Fein, the Labour Party, the Social Democrats, the Green Party, People Before Profit and Independents4Change. The motion demands radical action on the housing crisis and strongly reflects the key points set out in the Congress Charter for Housing Rights.
