Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Modern Construction Methods: Discussion

I met the Taoiseach four weeks ago to give him an update. The situation that arose was that we had the units but we did not have the sites. If you do not have sites and services, you cannot build. The problem was not so much the units; they were the easy bit. The hard bit was getting the sites fully serviced and ready, because when you have the unit, all you do is arrive there with a truck and crane it into position. You cannot crane it into position unless the road and all the other services are in place. That was the issue. To give the Deputy an example-----
