I thank Ms McDonagh and her team for the opening statement and the questionnaire.

The housing market is a very important part of what Ireland is looking at but equally it is a very important part of what Bank of Ireland is doing. Ms McDonagh mentioned the 3,000 units and 1,700 places in student accommodation and the work on 160 sites. What else can be done by Bank of Ireland to help to increase supply and do the witnesses see any pitfalls along the way? We obviously had a boom before we had a bust and we do not want a repeat of that activity. Do they see pitfalls or issues ahead in terms of housing?
