- Committee on Housing and Homelessness: Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government (28 Apr 2016)
Clare Daly: I am here in place of Deputy Maureen O'Sullivan and I must also attend the Chamber for statements on EU migration and the refugee crisis so I will not repeat points that have already been made here. The discussion has been wide ranging and the Minister has made the point, correctly, that our housing market is a result of political and social choices. That is really, in essence, the project...
- Committee on Housing and Homelessness: Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government (28 Apr 2016)
Clare Daly: Good, we will be all on the same side then when it comes out on that. My last point concerns rapid builds and the Minister's point about objections from communities to social housing, which is a little unfair. People in many areas would object to any type of housing if a cul-de-sac is being opened up and their whatever is being interfered with. However, the Minister mentioned Beaumont....

- Committee on Housing and Homelessness: Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government (28 Apr 2016)
Clare Daly: The Minister is caricaturing what I was saying.

- Committee on Housing and Homelessness: Housing Agency (28 Apr 2016)
Clare Daly: One reason why there is no disagreement is that the Housing Agency stole the show at the meeting in the Custom House. The idea of setting out the parameters, as it does, validates the Housing Agency in the first instance. It is really strategically important and we will not grapple with the issue unless we do as it does. Now I am agreeing with the witnesses. The points about changing...
- Committee on Housing and Homelessness: Irish Council for Social Housing (28 Apr 2016)
Clare Daly: I am going to sound negative, although I hate sounding negative and I do not mean it personally. I do not get the role of housing bodies. I am not saying this in a smart way, but it could seem to some people - I am probably one of them - that many of the functions the housing bodies have taken on were traditionally those of the local authorities and that much of what the housing bodies have...
- Committee on Housing and Homelessness: Irish Council for Social Housing (28 Apr 2016)
Clare Daly: Would it not be more efficient for a local authority, as a collective body that has an organised structure already in place, to do this work?
- Committee on Housing and Homelessness: Irish Council for Social Housing (28 Apr 2016)
Clare Daly: In terms of the larger housing associations which do have significant rental income, how many are we talking about? How many offices, staff, chief executive officers and so forth?
- Committee on Housing and Homelessness: Irish Council for Social Housing (28 Apr 2016)
Clare Daly: Will Dr. McManus be able to get that information, on the costs associated with staff, premises and so forth?
- Committee on Housing and Homelessness: Irish Council for Social Housing (28 Apr 2016)
Clare Daly: It was on tier 1 and tier 2 staffing, salaries, premises and so on.
- Committee on Housing and Homelessness: Irish Council for Social Housing (28 Apr 2016)
Clare Daly: Premises, salary and that type of information would be illustrative also. That is great.
