While I appreciate the Minister of State's preparation and delivery of his response, it is factually incorrect. I have documentation in front of me that states a person was quoted €3,000 to deal with and address the problem in his house. I also read into the record the ongoing maintenance costs for ensuring the gas is kept at bay in the house. However, the Minister of State's report suggests remediation is inexpensive and costs approximately €56. Who is right and who is wrong? This man is a case study. Unfortunately, his wife died because of living in this property. Many other people have also died. The Minister of State stated in his reply that 200 people are dying every year because of this poisonous gas.
