Homeowners in Mayo and other counties are becoming increasingly alarmed about the delays in the 100% redress scheme. Will the Tánaiste give a guarantee that this scheme will be fully in place before the end of the year? Can the Tánaiste accept that the unnecessary delays and the obstacles being put in the way of homeowners who have paid almost €7,000 to certified engineers who established that the houses are impacted by pyrite and mica are wholly unacceptable. Does the Tánaiste agree that partial fixes, and trapping families in their crumbling homes for a number of years until they display sufficient visible damage before they can access scheme, is not something that the Government will stand over?

With regard to the houses impacted by pyrite that were sold by Mayo County Council, will the Tánaiste ask that local authorities take full responsibility for those houses? The council engineers signed off on them and sold them to innocent homeowners.
