We have probably had NAMA for four years or longer. The delivery in terms of social housing has been disappointing, to say the least. Some 203 units have been delivered overall. In 2011, it was claimed that almost 2,000 units had been identified, but these were whittled down to a small number. Another claim of 3,879 identified units has also been whittled down because some of those units have been sold.

More than 100,000 people are on the housing waiting list. Families included, we are discussing a couple of hundred thousand people. This disaster is building. More and more people are attending our clinics about housing issues.
