I am talking about the facts and figures that come from each of the local authorities in Dublin, for which I am responsible. I am also talking about the 800 to 900 families who have exited emergency accommodation and have gone into homes so far this year. Roughly a third of those have gone into new social housing and the other two thirds have gone into the private rental sector. That is not ideal. We are trying to reverse that, which is why we have Rebuilding Ireland in the first place. That is why next year we will build more social housing homes than were built any year this century in any of the boom years.
