Saincheisteanna Tráthúla (Atógáil) - Topical Issue Debate (Resumed): Housing Schemes (12 Jul 2023)

Thomas Gould: I agree with my party colleague Deputy Ó Laoghaire. We have been dealing with the residents of Noonan's Road for years, but even before that, the residents of Noonan's Road and St. Finbarr's Road had been promised works on their flats for years, with very little done. These flats were built in a bygone time. We have to move beyond that now. Deputy Ó Laoghaire and I are looking...

Thomas Gould: I appreciate that. I know time is constrained. I will make my comments and the witnesses might have a chance to speak to me afterwards.

It is brilliant to bring everyone together so they should be congratulated on...
