I thank Deputy Durkan. The next slot is the Independents but they may be occupied in the Seanad and the Dáil so I will move on to the next slot which is the Green Party slot and I will take that.

I have questions for representatives from both of the local authorities. It is very helpful for us to engage with different local authorities from the ones we all have been used to where we probably served as councillors in the past. Last year two significant pieces of legislation were passed, the Land Development Agency Act 2021 and the Affordable Housing Act 2021. I wish to ask both of the local authorities represented here about their experiences in working with the Land Development Agency. I will go to Meath County Council first. What Land Development Agency, LDA, sites are active in Meath, and what engagement does the council have with the LDA?
