Will the Chairman allow me to respond first? I ask for us to alter this on Report Stage. I am very happy to do the analysis and get the information when it is available. I am happy to present before the finance committee again when we have the CSO data in March 2018 and have the analysis done in line with what the Deputy is asking. The matter could then be concluded based on the correct information and everything the Government is doing. We can agree or disagree with this. What we want to do is give people the opportunity to purchase their own property. Affordability is the issue in this city and county and in certain areas around the country.
