Regarding Alone, the lone parent families and the supply of social housing, the figures that were given showed Ireland was at 9% while the EU average is 18%. What I find now is that when both older people and lone parent families who are at risk of homelessness get homes, they get some of the worst housing that is available when they should probably be getting some of the best. These are all vulnerable people. Do the witnesses see that happening where people are just being thrown anywhere, probably because they do not have a voice or their voices are not being heard by the people in authority?
