- Public Accounts Committee: 2020 Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Home Building Finance Ireland - Financial Statements 2020 (3 Mar 2022) Verona Murphy: It is completely distorted. Ms Deering is saying these are owner-occupier properties and yet she is giving me figures of an average. On top of that, she is telling me that 600 of them are for the rental market and are not owner-occupier homes.

Somebody on €250,000 a year will never resonate with the reality of someone with an average income who is trying to get a mortgage.
