Ms Dara Deering:

Our objective is to make sure there is awareness in every county that the HBFI exists. That is why we have a lending and business development team that goes out into those counties to make sure that people know, if finance is a barrier to bringing forward supply, we are here. However, as we know, finance is not the only barrier in bringing forward supply. Viability is a real challenge and our role is to make sure that finance does not get in the way.
