The reason this has dragged on and on is that its buddies that had a public-private partnership, PPP, arrangement with the State at the time went bust and let the entire community down. I could go on and on, but I do not have the scope to recount the corruption and the corrupted nature of its relationship with the people to whom I have referred. Its plan fails again because it is myopic and limited view. I put it to the Taoiseach that the funds the Government now mollycoddles and the sweetheart deals it affords are now coming back to bite it. Bartra has said that unless the State steps in and buys back homes at inflated prices, it is going to offload them to cuckoo funds. Those funds, in turn, will let out these homes and skin people for extortionate rents. I would like to know what the Taoiseach proposes to do about this as the Head of Government.
