Louise O'Reilly (Dublin Fingal, Sinn Fein) | Oireachtas source

Deputy Jim O'Callaghan stated that the crisis cannot be solved overnight. Fine Gael has been in government for 12 years. It has had more than 4,000 overnights. How many more overnights will it take? We need a change of Government, a change of approach because what the Government is doing is not working. I do not know whose interests it is serving, but it is not serving the interests of my constituents or of families. All the latter want is the chance to have stable and secure homes from which they can build their lives. This should not be too much to ask, and yet the Government finds itself incapable of addressing their concerns and of providing people with a safe or secure roof over their heads.

I do not know if anyone on the Government benches has ever been evicted.
