I thank the witnesses for their presentation. I apologise for joining the meeting late. I have gone through the written submission. I thank the Department for the work it is doing right across the country.

The big debate at the moment is on housing and derelict properties. A scheme in respect of vacant buildings in towns and villages has been introduced. What was the expenditure in that regard? What kind of results have been achieved? Do we need to amend the scheme in order to have a more effective response and more effective delivery?
