- Housing: Motion [Private Members] (3 Oct 2018)
Catherine Martin: I am sharing my time with Deputies Shortall and Healy. When people are being made homeless faster than the Government can get them out of homelessness, something is not working. When more than 50 households enter into rental distress every day and need to avail of the housing assistant payment, HAP, something is not working. When Fine Gael has been in government for more than seven...
