There is a big hole here in respect of the mica redress scheme.
I recognise there is going to be a significant challenge in doing that. There are no easy answers to it. The figure quoted was €32 million. It will have some effect on the cost of construction, although not as much as the 10% that was originally floated. My understanding is the Parliamentary Budget Office has indicated the Department of Finance is not providing estimates for the help-to-buy scheme. Is that correct? It has concluded the scheme may not be providing good value for money. Are our guests aware of that?
