Why is this figure is so low? It seems incredible. I can only give the Secretary General my perspective as a public representative.

I am a Deputy for Limerick city where housing is an enormous issue. I, no doubt like any other Deputy, note the number of people coming to their public representatives. How did our building programme get to the point where we were only building an average 14 new local authority builds per local authority in 2013?
