Pearse Doherty: Bhí an traein mall inniu. Gabhaim buíochas leis an Tánaiste. Faoina Rialtas, tá praghas na dteach ag méadú le bliain anuas. Méadú de 7% a chonaic muid inné. Ar fud an Stáit anois, tá meánphraghas €400,000 ar thithe do dhaoine atá ag iarraidh teach úr a cheannacht. Yesterday, the CSO reported that in the past...

Pearse Doherty: What planet is the Tánaiste living on? He stood there and said the rate of increase of house prices is coming down. He should open his eyes. It is accelerating. It is increasing month-on-month. We have had ten months of house price increases. In the Tánaiste's constituency, house prices are €100,000 higher than when he took office just four years ago. The...

- Future Ireland Fund and Infrastructure, Climate and Nature Fund Bill 2024: Report and Final Stages (15 May 2024)
Pearse Doherty: As we have discussed, the Bill provides for the establishment of two funds, that is, the future Ireland fund and the infrastructure, climate and nature fund. These funds were first proposed in response to two trends, namely, the future costs likely to be incurred by the State and the growth of corporation tax receipts in recent years. We all acknowledge that we have seen a significant...
- Future Ireland Fund and Infrastructure, Climate and Nature Fund Bill 2024: Report and Final Stages (15 May 2024)
Pearse Doherty: I say this often, but Deputy Gould is 100% right. Earlier, I said the reason the Government is getting the Bill so wrong is it does not understand what is happening in the housing crisis. Deputy Gould put to the Minister what is happening on his doorstep and he seems to think everything is okay. It is far from okay. Deputy Gould also mentioned the statistics released today. What is...
- Future Ireland Fund and Infrastructure, Climate and Nature Fund Bill 2024: Report and Final Stages (15 May 2024)

There has been an increase of €130,000 for an existing home in the Minister's community, a fact he ignored. He said the Government is delivering affordable and cost-rental housing. The Government has missed every single...
