Given the rush to cut corners and the rush to make money, people now find, years afterwards, having paid very good money and having mortgaged themselves for that, the house they live in is a firetrap. This is grossly unacceptable and is not an easy situation to sort out. I would like to find out more about this, in discussion with the city council and the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government. I cannot give a judgment at this stage. The point Deputy McDonald raises is of particular difficulty and I am sure great stress to the people who live in those houses. Unfortunately, it is not the first case. When Priory Hall was raised in this forum, I said I hoped it would be the only case, but clearly it is not and there may be others in the system as well.
