I had the same mantra from the Deputy's colleagues in the Seanad earlier but we are clearly not what they describe. We are committed to social housing projects and putting the capacity back in the system to deliver social housing. There is a commitment of approximately €5.5 billion for social housing and 47,000 housing units throughout the country. Louth will play a major part in that. We have engaged the local authority and we have the land bank compiled for Louth County Council. There are 55 acres and I can go through all the sites as it is here in front of me.
