When does the Minister of State expect that strategy to be done? When does he expect the €400 million to be accessed? To be fair, the way it was announced, one would think it was immediately becoming available. I remember there seemed to be quite a bit of shock across the sector because people were not aware of it. You are giving hope to students as well when you are announcing more than €400 million. Students will be expecting that money to be delivered and to see housing as a result. When does the Minister of State expect the more than €400 million that was launched with great fanfare to make an impact?
