I have just pointed out to Mr. Harrington that approved housing bodies have flagged that there is undue delay, that there is a reasonable turnaround with the Housing Agency, but then it goes to the Department and the whole rigmarole has to be gone through again and everything duplicated, leading to increased construction costs. This is all totally unnecessary in the midst of a housing emergency. It beggars belief.
