I thank Mr. Geaney. The Minister was on RTÉ last night and he stated that it was possible to buy an affordable house in Fingal for €166,000. The cheapest house it is possible to buy in Cork city is on the Boherboy Road for €242,000. I think they are gone now. Can someone explain to me why a house in Cork is €76,000 dearer than one in Dublin? From what I can see, affordable houses in Cork are not affordable.
