Noel Ahern (Dublin North West, Fianna Fail)

The needs of the 13,000 persons on the housing waiting list will be met. We hope to achieve the overall house production level of 68,000 homes and to maintain the production rate of 17 units per 1,000 people. If we can sustain this level of supply for a couple of years, we will have broken the back of the demand that exists.
