Simon Coveney (Cork South Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

My understanding is the Minister, Deputy Eoghan Murphy, will bring a proposal to protect tenants before the Cabinet next week. It will be tested in this House, as it should be. It is important for us to focus on where the problem lies. We are delivering more social houses and also more private and affordable houses, but we are not, unfortunately, overtaking the pace at which people are entering homelessness.
