The credit union movement has for over five years been advocating using its €10 billion or so in assets in investment in social good, particularly in social housing. It is a policy that my party and I support. I raised this with the Minister in September. Is the SPV, which and was approved by the Central Bank in February 2018, open to accept funds from the credit union sector? Have any of those funds been received? Have those funds been invested in social or affordable housing?
