The programme for Government is clear. SHDs will not be extended past their expiry date. We need to look at elements of the provision of affordable social housing and educational facilities in the context of how we can make sure that they are dealt with efficiently through the planning system. SHDs will, however, cease post the expiry date and we will not be extending them further.

In the interests of time, I will respond directly to Deputy Higgins on the other items.
