Darragh O'Brien (Dublin Fingal, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

I have nothing further to say. I have been very clear. Why would this agency be treated differently from any other? We have taken on board many of the concerns raised during pre-legislative scrutiny in the previous Oireachtas. It should not be forgotten that annual reports and regulations will be laid before the Oireachtas. The Minister has recourse to the Oireachtas committees. There is also the Comptroller and Auditor General and the freedom of information legislation. These provisions would only add a further burden of decision-making for an agency which we must ensure gets up and running to deliver homes for our people. I cannot accept the amendments.
