Ms Tina Donaghy:

It is social housing and maybe public housing as Deputy Connolly mentioned earlier. Fold Ireland provides housing for older people and we promote independence to enable people to live in well designed, quality accommodation for as long as possible, to lessen the burden on the State, to keep people in their homes and to be able to bring services to them to enable people to remain healthy and independent for as long as possible. Our markets changed here significantly and the private rented sector is on the increase because people cannot afford to access affordable accommodation or to purchase accommodation. We need to look at getting people who need quality accommodation to live in at affordable rents into public housing. That is where we all need to be aiming towards because our economy needs that. As was said, the people who do those jobs need somewhere to sleep and we need affordable accommodation for people to live in from across all sectors. Our accommodation is not affordable at this time if one is not in public housing.
