I have used almost every opportunity in this Chamber to emphasise the value to the State of cost rental affordable housing and 100% housing on public land. The LDA recently informed the housing committee that it would now build 100% public housing on public land and that 75% of its units will be cost rental. This amounts to approximately 30,000 units over the next 20 years. I personally welcome these Green Party policies. However, recent newsprints suggest delays. Will the Taoiseach give us assurance here today the LDA is on track to deliver 30,000 costs rental units, as prescribed in its 20-year programme?
