Terence Flanagan (Dublin North East, Fine Gael)

I seek the adjournment of the Dáil under Standing Order 32 to raise a matter of national importance, namely, the need for the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government, to immediately give help to the 20,000 householders whose homes are beginning to crumble around them because of the presence of the defective pyrite in the foundations of their home. This issue is causing significant stress and anxiety for many young couples who also find themselves in negative equity. I ask the Government to intervene to help deal with this issue.
