Does Enterprise Ireland see a sort of amalgamation of skills there and workers who are technically proficient in putting together prefabricated housing on-site being developed? I refer to workers who may not necessarily be carpenters, plasterer or blocklayers but to a role that could be developed to ensure the panels are put together properly, that there are not big gaps and that the homes are draught-proof. Is that a job that needs to be created or do we just need general construction workers?
