Can the witness tell us a bit about increasing the land bank? How is it funded?

Cian O'Callaghan: The Taoiseach told the Dáil earlier that housing commencements are up. Housing commencements are in fact down 14%.

Cian O'Callaghan: Before I talk about the importance of a referendum, setting a date for it and the need for us strongly to oppose any possibility of privatisation of our water and wastewater infrastructure, I support the comments by my constituency colleague, Deputy Mitchell, regarding the problems for people moving into homes because of delays in water connections. It is completely and utterly unacceptable....

Water Services (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill 2022: Report and Final Stages (9 Nov 2022)

If the Government were to do this, then we could then...
