The Taoiseach very thoroughly washed his hands of this matter or at least attempted to do so. It is of no comfort to residents of Longboat Quay, whom I visited at the weekend, to hear the Taoiseach recount all of the malpractice of the past as that does not solve their problem. The residents find themselves in a position where there are very serious deficiencies in fire safety in the homes in which they live and for which, as the Taoiseach acknowledged, they paid good money. A derisory and unacceptable offer was made to them. The Taoiseach and I know that the residents cannot put their hands on thousands of euro and should not have to do so because the fault does not rest with them.
