I too would like to wish the two Ministers well. With regard to the question, the previous Minister with responsibility for housing stated in the House a few months ago that "Part V of the Planning and Development Act 2000 has contributed to increased ... integration and more sustainable mixed tenure communities". We know that is not true. It did not happen. Over a ten year period only 5,000 social units were delivered under the Part V mechanism. What are the Government's plans for dealing with that now?
