Last week representatives of the Housing Agency appeared before the committee. I asked them a number of questions on the Croí Cónaithe programme in cities. Bizarrely, they felt they were not in a position to tell us how many applications there had been for that scheme. They told us we should ask Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage officials. I am taking the opportunity to see if Mr. Doyle can tell us how many applications have been received or are on hand for that scheme and where they are located.
