Séamus Healy (Tipperary South, Independent)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to debate the following urgent matter: the need for the Government to cap the price of building land first recommended in the Kenny report approximately 30 years ago in light of the continued escalation of house prices, a current increase of 7.2%, and the 50,000 families languishing on local authority house waiting lists and to give the Government an opportunity to make a statement on the matter.
