-----but the comments he made were disrespectful. He mentioned that he met Cork Simon Community. I will give him some figures. In 2019, some 1,100 men and women availed of the services of Cork Simon Community.

It took Deputy Ó Broin to bring forward a Bill to support people in homelessness and to put a plan in place. I welcome the Minister's support. He needs to thank Deputy Ó Broin and support the work he is doing. At the end of the day, when Fine Gael was in government for four or five years, Fianna Fáil supported it and its catastrophic handling of the housing crisis.
