I was about to say those in Poppintree cost €191,000. In the estate I live in, houses are selling for approximately €190,000 and they look a lot nicer. I do not think these houses look nice; they look like jerry-built grey-red houses. In years to come, people will ask serious questions about the cost of this housing. Of this I have no doubt. Are the 1,500 units being spoken about by the Minister being counted in the social housing figures? Are they part of the 47,000?
