- Ceisteanna Eile - Other Questions: Housing Schemes (19 Sep 2024)
Eoin Ó Broin: I will continue the conversation about the tenant in situ scheme because the information both the Minster and Minister of State, Deputy Dillon, have presented is not the same as the information given to local authorities in the circular of June this year. There is a cap - it is 50% above the targets that have been set for local authorities. Anything above the 50% cap must be submitted...

One criterion is that all other options have to be exhausted before the...
