On the housing (miscellaneous provisions) Bill, when will a social housing programme be announced? The Taoiseach will be aware, in the context of escalating rents and the gap between rent and rent supplement that more families are being evicted from their homes. Approximately 250 families in this city will tonight be living in one room in a hotel or guesthouse accommodation. These people are effectively refugees in their own country. It is shocking. When can we expect action on the housing front?
