Finally, if I may, is the Tánaiste and her Government satisfied that the €50 million allocated for the help-to-buy scheme, in combination with the new Central Bank regime announced yesterday, will not inflate prices? The Central Bank Governor stated yesterday that he would renew the rules if prices rise, but what will the Tánaiste do if she is proven wrong and that is the case? I contend - make no mistake about it - that that will be the case. We need to know if the Government has any idea as to what it will do when it does happen.
