Mr. Brian O'Gorman:

It is a concern; there is no doubt about that. We can only take an assessment at the time of letting. We cannot foretell the future, unfortunately. As Ms Cleary stated, it involves treating individuals, as I think they should be, as households in their own right. The more pointed discussion will be on how that affects the overall calculation of accessibility. I take the Deputy’s point that sometimes it is a forced together household rather than one of necessity, but that is similar in the private rental sector.
