Mr. Moloney accepts that the value for money is clear in terms of the provision of housing when it is considered that the alternative is the procurement of hotel beds. The value for money is evident regardless of what the house costs. I am not saying we should pay any amount, but the cost of it is dwarfed by comparison with the cost the State is incurring in the context of emergency provision of accommodation.
