Sorry to interrupt but I would ask the witness to bring that feedback to the CCMA. Depending on what statistics one looks at, there could be up to 14,500 vacant and derelict homes in the greater Dublin area. We know that there is a massive need for new homes in the Dublin area. We know that there is a massive number of homes that could be tapped into and unlocked. It would be great to hear from people who work in that area as to how they are going to achieve that, based on the targets set by the Department.
