I will start on that point. I am interested in hearing the Minister of State’s thoughts on that as well. I think that is the best way. As the Minister of State will know, Údarás na Gaeltachta is already involved in the provision of some housing in Gaeltacht areas. If the Minister of State thinks the best route is to establish an approved housing body, then Údarás na Gaeltachta could do that. The Minister of State’s view on that would be welcome.

In relation to amendment No. 1132, it is very clear that decisions that are taken by planning authorities and the commission significantly impact the language and Gaeltacht areas. Surely, therefore, there is a need for training in these areas. If that is not to be done through a legislative requirement here, how will it be done?
