Ceisteanna - Questions: Cabinet Committee Meetings (19 Jul 2016)

Ceisteanna - Questions: Cabinet Committee Meetings (19 Jul 2016)

Ceisteanna - Questions: Cabinet Committee Meetings (19 Jul 2016)

Ruth Coppinger: I thank the Taoiseach. His reply was worth waiting for. There was purpose to the question. In light of the fantastic economic figures released last week, I thought we might be adjusting completely our social and public sector policies.

Ceisteanna - Questions: Cabinet Committee Meetings (19 Jul 2016)

Housing Strategy: Statements (19 Jul 2016)

Ruth Coppinger: The Minister is continually interrupting.

Housing Strategy: Statements (19 Jul 2016)

Ruth Coppinger: Perhaps the Acting Chairman would allow me a couple of additional minutes to allow for the interruptions. Some 25% to 30% of the housing on council-owned land will be social housing and 75% will be privately mortgaged or, to use the new term, "affordable rental" houses. What does affordable rental mean? Perhaps the Minister will clarify if I am correct that it is 70% to 80% of market rent....
