I do not want to take up too much time. The council might provide the committee with those figures. It was an issue that Mr. Curran himself raised in terms of the zoned land within Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council. I think it would be helpful. I would like to know that about every local authority but, as the witnesses are here today, I ask them to provide the committee with an overview of the amount of land that is in the ownership of Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council and how much of that is zoned residential.
It would be helpful in the context of the ask for additional lands to be zoned residential because the OPR tells us we have far too much land. We are asking local authorities to dezone land zoned residential, while in today's paper I read local authorities need more land zoned residential. We are getting mixed messaging about residential zoned land. Will the witnesses supply the committee-----
