The 100% Redress Party is an Irish political party registered on 15 September 2023. [1] The group was formed after mica action groups, including the Donegal Mica Action Group, [2] proposed to set up a political party to represent homeowners impacted by the Irish defective block crisis. [3] The party's main stated goal is to secure a new redress scheme for defective concrete blocks that covers 100% of the costs of rebuilding homes and buildings affected by defective materials. [4]

Despite a focus on the defective blocks issue, the group has stated that it is not a single-issue party and said that it had developed policies regarding health, housing, tourism, youth emigration and government transparency. [5] [6]

The party is registered to contest local and Dáil elections. [7]

The party contested the 2024 Donegal County Council election winning four seats out of the six they contested.
