Thomas Gould: I have a point for the Chairman. I was in the private sector before I came here and I know that when you are installing anything like energy-efficient lighting, you must recoup the cost in three years. Many businesses and people would think that seven years is too long. That is just from a business point of view. The reason for this is that the technology will be outdated in seven years...

Housing for All Update: Statements (4 Oct 2022)

Thomas Gould: The Government's targets for Cork city are to build 394 social houses and 76 affordable houses annually. This shows us the lack of imagination, leadership and understanding of the Government, and especially the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage, Deputy Darragh O'Brien, regarding this challenge. I refer to the number of people evicted and served with notices to quit, and...

Defective Concrete Products Levy: Motion [Private Members] (4 Oct 2022)

Thomas Gould: The price of an average three-bedroom semi-detached house in Cork has risen to €350,000. That is the latest figure from a survey by Real Estate Alliance.

Ceisteanna - Questions: Cabinet Committees (5 Oct 2022)
