On the situation in Tyrrelstown, which the Minister mentioned and I thank him for agreeing to meet those concerned, will he ask local authorities to enact a measure to provide that if the council acquires homes that people are already renting, it cannot start to evict those people? A new scheme must be developed to allow people to purchase those houses, which they would be well able to afford because the rent they are paying is twice what they pay on a mortgage.
