Mr. John Sheahan:

I agree with what Ms Colgan says. Trying to get on the property ladder is the issue. Currently, we have the double whammy of high rents and people being asked to produce records of strong savings even though one negates the other. We welcome any scheme that does what it says on the tin and looks after the cohort of people who are caught between qualifying for social housing and being able to buy on the open market.
