Deputy Martin says that figures do not mean anything to him, that they are meaningless. For his information, 5,800 families received a supplementary allowance increase last year under the tenancy scheme introduced by the Tánaiste and Minister for Social Protection. A total of 6,000 families were helped under the housing assistance payment. A total of 300 sites are being built on at the moment.
