It is a question for the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government, Deputy Eoghan Murphy. I seek an update on the situation with regard to the mica redress scheme. As the Minister will know, in last year's budget €20 million was allocated and the Government committed that by the start of this year houses would be fixed. There are some 5,000 houses affected in Donegal. As the Minister well knows, families are sitting in their houses wondering if the walls will fall down. Can the Minister update us on the progress with regard to it and can he give us a definitive date as to when homeowners will be able to apply and homes will get to be fixed?
