Terence Flanagan (Dublin North East, Fine Gael)

I thank the Minister for his comprehensive response. Local authorities were asked to resubmit a cost-benefit analysis. Can the Minister of State give us an update? One area earmarked for regeneration in my constituency is the Buttercup estate in Darndale. Can the Minister of State re-examine this? It has gone on for many years and regeneration should have taken place by now. It is the only estate in Darndale that has been forgotten.

The Minister of State has set aside €500 million for the home choice loan scheme. Can the Minister of State set aside some of the money to deal with regeneration and social housing problems?
