Affordable Housing: Motion [Private Members] (7 Jul 2020)

Michael Collins: ..., if not decades, to clean up. I urge the new Government to look at models that have worked throughout the world. I met a Norwegian native living in west Cork over the weekend. He came to Ireland to live and has bought some ground. He loves our country, our culture and that he can farm his land; due to ridiculous planning regulations, however, he is unable to build on that land....

Housing: Motion [Private Members] (3 Oct 2018)

Michael Collins: ...matter. It is time now for the Government to deliver on its promises and stop believing the illusion that it is dealing with this crisis. We want real action taken now.

Michael Collins: ...the opportunity to speak on housing. I thank Solidarity-People Before Profit for bringing forward this motion. We need immediate action to tackle this problem. The majority of those becoming homeless are in the private rental sector. I refer to huge numbers of my constituents from Bandon, Kilbrittain, Ballinspittle, Ballinadee, Dunmanway, Skibbereen, Leap and Goleen. The list is...

Affordable Housing: Statements (Resumed) (29 Mar 2018)

Michael Collins: ...about it; we are going around in circles. We have been here before on many occasions. I have raised this issue on the floor of the Dáil, but nothing seems to have changed.

Yesterday, some new figures...
