My observation is not specific to Galway City Council but is a general one. If we take the social housing target in the first year of the Housing for All plan, it is approximately 9,000 units for the new-build programme, whereas Rebuilding Ireland was to end in 2021 with delivery of 10,000 units. Even though there was a significant loss of units from the targets in 2020 and 2021, the new targets, from 2022 and for a couple of years thereafter, are lower than what was in the Fine Gael-led Government's previous national development plan, which had a figure of 10,000 a year. The maths does not add up in that way. It might add up for an individual local authority such as Galway City Council but, nationally, we are dropping down to 9,000 for a couple of years and then building up to the 10,000 social housing units midway through the current plan. Does that make sense?
