Mr. John McCarthy:
I hope I at least have some answers to the Deputy's questions. I will take them in pieces if that is okay. The total number of social housing households supported under Rebuilding Ireland last year was just over 27,100. That breaks down as 17,926 on HAP, 4,251 through build programmes, 560 voids, 2,610 acquisitions, just over 1,000 leasing units and 755 RAS units. Although some of the individual elements came in under target while others came in over target, in overall terms, the figure of 27,103 was 6% ahead of the overall target for the year.
