The witnesses representing Limerick City and County Council said that the council has 76 properties that it either has sold or is in the process of selling and that it compulsorily purchased. Could those properties not be used for social housing or are they business properties? If the latter, why are they not being used as social housing?

I thank the witnesses. I really appreciate their comments.
