What is disgraceful is the fact that the Government has put nearly €200 million into the pockets of the wealthiest 14% in the State, yet put only an additional €69 million into tackling the homelessness crisis. That is what is disgusting. On the doorstep of this Chamber people are dying because they cannot have a roof over their heads. I will take no lectures from the Minister of State, Deputy Sherlock, from any Labour Deputy or from anyone else on this issue.
