Jan O'Sullivan (Limerick City, Labour) | Oireachtas source

The Minister of State, Deputy English, will, I am sure, confirm that I have attended the openings of housing developments which commenced when I was Minister of State in the Department. They are only opening this year. As such, it was a failure of Fianna Fáil not of the Fine Gael-Labour Party Government that virtually nothing was completed in its first three years of office. I was also very worried by another Fianna Fáiler who spoke about tax incentives again for developers, builders and landowners. That is what brought about the crash the last time. Houses were built in the wrong places.
