A Dublin landlord has been ordered to pay more than €11,500 for not registering rental properties in Galway.
The Private Residential Tenancies Board secured three criminal convictions and three fines against William Twomey of 9 Winton Road, Ranelagh, Dublin 6.
It was for his failure to register three of his properties at Cluain Ard, Co. Galway as rental properties.
At a Dublin court, Judge Halpin convicted Twomey of three offences contrary to the Residential Tenancies Act 2004 and fined him €1,500 in respect of each.
The District Court also awarded the PRTB legal costs.
