With the other Louth numbers there was no risk of people going into emergency accommodation. We are talking about people in emergency accommodation, hotels and hostels, where there is a risk to their tenancy and of their being forced out onto the streets. That is not what we are talking about here. We are talking about people who are in houses, homes, who are safe. Deputy Ó Broin is trying to give the impression that I am trying to keep information from the committee. I have just published two reports that we have never seen before. I set up an inter-agency group. I come in and talk to the committee.
