Dr. Ronan Lyons:

The one thing is the leaky bucket. If the State invests money in helping someone to get a house, the State should have some claim on that. The idea of building a house, giving it to someone for below market rent and then at some point deciding to give it to someone is a massive waste of taxpayers' money and private households benefit at the expense of the general taxpayer. That has happened for generations. It is a tempting thing to vote in but it is a major issue.
