I am conscious that in 2004 Dún Laoghaire brought in a ten-year plan to deal with voids and that seems to have been very successful. I do not like to have a cut at members when they are not here but I believe, in 2004, it was Fianna Fáil that removed direct build from the local authorities, and Part V was used for developers. If Meath had done what Dún Laoghaire did, maybe we would not have had today's conversation. Mr. McCarthy might comment on that.
