In that context, I have asked parliamentary questions about State-owned land, council-owned land and a breakdown of same, but it is like running around the field trying to get an answer. Such information should be provided to us ahead of the meeting.

In terms of capital construction, we hear a lot of talk about where the possibilities exist for the tens of thousands of homes that could be built. Could we ask the Department to provide us with tabular information on a county-by-county basis on land in local authority and State ownership, a breakdown of the status of the land in terms of zoning, and if it is part of the land aggregation scheme? We will need to get the information in good time. I ask that we would make the request now in order that we can have the information well in advance of the meeting.
