Joan Burton (Dublin West, Labour)

Given the presence of the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform, Deputy Dermot Ahern, I wish to ask the Taoiseach about the tens of thousands of people who are subject to management companies in terms of the homes they are purchasing. What is the position and does the Government have a timeline to bring the Multi-Unit Developments Bill back from the Seanad to complete it? Is there any hope for the tens of thousands of people who are mired in difficulty and must pay very high service charges? Developers are in liquidation and are living in Spain.
