The Deputy referenced the Abhaile service which was put in place a couple of months ago. Many families have been availing of its services. In fact the data, in terms of the number of families availing of the voucher scheme through which they obtain legal and other supports to help them address the situations in which they find themselves in terms of their homes, is very encouraging. Many individuals are being helped through that scheme. We are examining what other legislation may be necessary arising from the commitment in the programme for Government. We are also examining whether a specialist court is feasible and how it would operate.
