I join Senator Bannon in calling for a debate on rural housing. I am very aware of the problems throughout the country, particularly in my county, Clare. There has been much difficulty in relation to the role of An Taisce. There was talk in the past regarding Dúchas and I am pleased the Minister has dealt with the issue – finally, I hope. I ask the Leader to include a discussion on An Taisce in any debate, including the role of An Bord Pleanála. There is lack of information on the difference of opinion between the inspectors and the determination reached by the board in some cases. I would welcome an early debate on the matter.
