Social and Affordable Housing.
4:00 pm
Bernard Durkan (Kildare North, Fine Gael)
This is as brief as I can be. This costs the taxpayers and the families in question up to €500 million per year. It is extraordinary that nobody has concluded that the obvious thing to do is acquire some of those houses and allocate them at rental prices, with an option to purchase them at a later stage.
