RPZ regime extended to the end of 2024 and increases limited to inflation

Anybody know if the proposed new RPZ rent increase cap is still on track to become law on Friday 9th? Coincidentally, I am concluding a new tenancy and can negotiate the lease commencement date to 8th, but don’t want to subsequently find out that our dear government has exceeded expectations on implementation timeline (which I doubt they will!)…..as I could also try push a commencement date for later today…..but don’t want to.
 
The President signed the Bill yesterday evening (Friday), but from my reading of the Act, the section dealing with rent increases in RPZs only comes into operation on or after the Minister for Housing signs an order to do so. I heard an interview he did on Newstalk which suggests “next week”.
