I know the Deputy understands that. Ultimately, we will have to make choices regarding how we do all of that. The Deputy feels as strongly as I do about the need to make further progress on housing. If we stand by the need to adhere to the fiscal rules, as the Fianna Fáil Party does, it will mean making choices about how we pay for resources that become available beyond what I announced in the summer economic statement. There are no easy choices left regarding how we do it. That is what I am reflecting on at present.
