I am glad that we have examined ways of helping people. I hope a way will also be found in the forthcoming budget to target help through increased mortgage relief or subsidy. I am confident that the Minister will provide funding for the disabled person's housing grants scheme, which is an excellent scheme, although it urgently needs funding. Schemes for the elderly such as the essential repairs grants scheme and health board schemes should also be funded. This debate should address the exorbitant price of land and I hope we can have a debate on planning at a later stage. It is disgraceful that more land is not released for housing development. I know, as a Senator who represents a rural area, that it would be helpful if young people could build on their parents' land as they would have free sites on which to build homes for themselves.
