Séamus Healy (Tipperary South, Independent)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 31 to raise a specific matter of local and national importance requiring urgent consideration, namely, the need for the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government to introduce a house purchase scheme for tenants of voluntary housing associations similar to the tenant purchase scheme operated by local authorities thereby giving these tenants equal rights with local authority tenants and giving them an opportunity to be home owners in accordance with the legitimate wish and expectation of Irish people generally and to ask the Minister to make a statement on the matter.
