I am a little confused as to the Sinn Féin position on this issue. The Deputy's question asks that the Government extends the tenant purchase scheme to Part V dwellings. The importance of integration in communities has been debated and agreed in this House, as has the importance of the provision of social housing. During a recent debate in this House, Sinn Féin argued that we should retain 20% of social housing in private estates but now Deputy Stanley is arguing that the 20% should be sold or at least be available for sale.
