As was confirmed by me last week when we debated this matter, and as stated by the Taoiseach, the 10% stamp duty rate is being reviewed. Let us not take this out of context or catastrophise this issue. I am well aware of those 45 homes in Belcamp and am aware of other instances but what we are looking at across the board is progress. Again, none of the Deputies in the main Opposition parties will even recognise the progress that is being made in housing delivery, in both social and affordable homes and in cost-rental homes that we legislated for and have delivered for the first time. In Sinn Féin's alternative budget, although there is an absence of a plan for housing, what it says it will invest in housing is over €1 billion less than the Government is investing right now.
