Ruth Coppinger (Dublin West, Socialist Party) | Oireachtas source

I move amendment No. 8:

In page 27, line 32, after “for” to insert “public”.

The proposal in these amendments from the Socialist Party concerns the inclusion of the building of social and affordable housing in the strategic projects which will be paid for from taxpayers' funds in the pensions reserve fund being established by the Minister. It is amazing that we should have to propose something that is so obvious to anybody outside the House. The most strategic need in the country is the provision of social and affordable housing.
