5:45 pm
Anthony Lawlor (Kildare North, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source
Will the Minister of State write to the local authorities to find out exactly how many vacant properties they have and how quick is their turnaround? Something such as that would help those on housing lists and waiting for accommodation, particularly families in overcrowded situations, gain access to appropriate housing. I ask the Minister of State to take on board those matters regarding local authorities. Government has stepped up to the mark and provided funding. We now need to get the local authorities to step up to the mark as well.
