Does Ms Behan not understand? I apologise for cutting across but, like Deputy McGrath, my time is limited. Does Ms Behan not accept that, if this means a so-called affordable purchase home is €400,000, we have a problem? Would it not be better to start with the all-in delivery cost of the unit, as we do with cost rental, and try to provide a real discount rather than artificially inflating the price way above the cost of delivery? Surely, for the majority of people this scheme is targeting, €400,000 is not affordable.
