Mr. Pádraig Dalton:

The CSO produces the index on a monthly basis and there is a significant amount of information. We can actually break down the profile of the houses and whether they are attached, detached, apartments or otherwise.

I think there is an indicator as to whether the purchaser is a first-time buyer, because the source for this information is the stamp duty data from the Revenue Commissioners. That information would be part of that but I will revert to the Deputy on the matter.
