The next few days will be fraught politically.
The Government is preparing what it believes is an intricate balancing act between renters' rights and developers' ambitions.
The logic underpinning this is that enhancing tenants' rights can be delivered in tandem with less strict rent caps.
Therefore, investors will get back to building more homes and ultimately the supply shortage can be eased.
The backdrop to this move is record high rents and the growing feeling among many that the social contract has been broken.
It all suggests that this will be a hard sell.
Opposition parties already believe that renters are being thrown under the bus.
It is all part of the long awaited redraw of the Rent Pressure Zones (RPZs) where the annual rent hike is capped at 2%.
In new buildings that cap will now be scrapped and instead rents will be linked to inflation.
The proposal, which Minister for Housing James Browne will bring to Cabinet, will also allow landlords with existing properties to reset rents for new tenants to the market rate.
After that they would be subject to the current 2% cap.
In exchange tenants will get security of tenure for six years in a move that the Government believes will bring an end to no fault evictions.
Questions are already being raised about just how secure current tenants are under these new changes.
On the surface, at least they do not appear to be subject to significant change.
However, Sinn Féin's Eoin Ó Broin believes the proposals will put tens of thousands of tenants with pre-2022 tenancies at risk.
That is because their landlords can evict them for no reason at the end of their six-year tenancy under the law as it stands.
That means these landlords would have the right to reset rents to new market levels after these tenants' six-year tenancies come to an end.
This is one of many pertinent questions about the changes that will inevitably lead to heated exchanges in the Dáil next Tuesday.
