Nobody can give us that answer. Nobody in the room can guarantee what will happen if people go ahead. We have been with the Central Bank and Insurance Ireland and we cannot have guarantees that those houses will be mortgageable or insurable, going forward, or that they can be signed off and certified without the foundations being done, but the foundations are excluded from this scheme. That is an enormous problem. It is the elephant in the room that is not going to go away. There needs to be absolute urgency not only for the homeowners but also for the citizens of Ireland who are investing this amount of money to make repairs for the injustices that have been done to these homeowners.

I have so many questions that they will not all be answered in seven minutes.
