Concern about the cost of housing in the country is shared across parties and by our guests from IBEC and the Irish Congress for Trade Unions. Our guests talked about allowing more third country workers to come to Ireland and take up employment, particularly in the low-margin industries, which I take to mean jobs in which workers earn the minimum wage or barely above it. Do our guests have any comments to make about the challenge of housing those workers? How will they find affordable housing in the context of the high cost of housing in the country?
