Mr. Graham Doyle:

There are certainly arguments we can make back and forth around value for money but fundamentally, there is a number of tools in the box in how we deliver housing and how we deliver a roof over people's heads. In recent years, there were constraints in the ability to build. The State has been trying to ramp up that capacity over the last number of years and has some success. While it is not enough yet and there is still a long way to go in that, with the constraints around Exchequer finance it has been a question of trying to balance value for money but also of using many of the tools in the box to ultimately deliver the roof over people's heads. That is what governs a lot of this, while at the same time trying our best to move over time to deliver solutions that do deliver value for money.
