Fáilte romhaibh. I have an awful temptation to state that we have gender equality today and might get some solution to the housing problem. I say that tongue in cheek but given the seriousness of the problem, I should not, really. Can Mr. John McCarthy tell us how many people are homeless today? What is the exact figure? "Morning Ireland" had a figure this morning. If memory serves me correctly, it was 9,000.
