Charles Ward (Donegal, 100% Redress Party)

I will give the Tánaiste a quick example. Solomons Court in Letterkenny has 1,400 houses and every single one of them has defective concrete. Some 15 have been remediated. With some, that involved full demolition and with others, it was partial remediation. However, the majority of people there are stuck because they are in a town and if 500 of them want to go into this scheme and get on with their lives - they have been living this for the last 12 to 13 years - there is absolutely nowhere for them to go. We have to make provisions and realise this a humanitarian crisis. Large numbers of people are going to need to move. In Donegal, 25,000 will potentially have to move. Where are we going to house them? That is how serious this is.
