The pyrite levy Bill is still on the clár. Did the Taoiseach inform the House that it would not proceed?

On the housing Bill, the Taoiseach may be aware from conversations with Government Deputies that public housing provision in the Dublin City Council area has collapsed and that the rental accommodation scheme is simply not working. We have an increasing number of homeless families, many of whom face the prospect of homelessness this Christmas. The Taoiseach is the man in charge. The Minister of State at the Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government with responsibility for housing is not delivering even remotely near the number of homes we need.
