I hope there is some point in asking the Taoiseach my question. He and his Government have given several commitments with regard to the need for immediate assistance for the approximately 5,000 homeowners in Donegal who are waiting on a Government scheme to help them fix their homes, which were affected by defective blocks containing mica, but they have not followed through on those commitments. Last year, the Taoiseach made a commitment that the scheme would be published by the end of 2018 and that work to fix homes would start by the start of 2019. He has visited these homes and given these commitments himself, and yet here we are, just four weeks from Christmas 2019, and the scheme has still not even been published. Will the Taoiseach update me on the status of that scheme? Will he commit to it being published before Christmas? Will he give a commitment that work to fix those homes will commence in the first months of 2020?
