The Tánaiste described the defective concrete block scheme as the biggest redress scheme in the history of the State and gave the impression to people around the State that everybody would be sorted. I can tell him, and he knows this, that most families in Donegal - I can speak with authority about that - cannot access the scheme because they will have to find between €50,000 and €150,000 to avail of it. There have been public meetings in packed rooms, two in Donegal and one in Mayo. The scheme is not working. For pyrite, over 3,000 families in Dublin and north Leinster got 100% redress. Will the Tánaiste deliver a scheme offering genuine 100% redress to families in Donegal, Mayo, Sligo and right down the west of Ireland?
