I thank Mr. O'Reilly for his reply. Unfortunately, it is more the other way around, with many more Dublin people in Kildare than the reverse, so the Dublin authorities will be seeing more of this. Yesterday was the first time I encountered it. Can a Dublin authority encourage Kildare County Council to purchase? I have received other queries on this matter in the couple of weeks the tenant in situscheme has been at the top of the news. Is it under discussion that a local authority in Dublin would encourage Kildare County Council to maintain the house for the person, who has been there for almost ten years? It is a difficult case that involves a family. The response she got from the Dublin authority yesterday saying that it could do nothing for her left her in floods of tears, as Mr. O'Reilly can imagine. Are we going to allow Kildare County Council to purchase her house for her? It is a major issue for her.
