That is an issue the committee potentially needs to look at in more detail. It was looked at in the previous Oireachtas and the County and City Management Association, CCMA, put forward that view that it could be putting more risk onto the State. That needs to be interrogated further because this is definitely a big barrier for people.
In terms of the urban regeneration and development funding of €1.3 billion, has analysis been done on its impact on vacancy and dereliction? Have a specific number of homes, vacant or derelict, that have been brought back into use been identified as part of that analysis?
