I join Senator O'Toole in asking for a debate on housing. The rate of construction of housing is very uneven across the country. The Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government has received a number of applications from local authorities for affordable housing, which should be fast-tracked, particularly given that land is now becoming available from health boards and because of road development. Those applications should be addressed quickly by the Department to allow us to have the housing for which we have already made provision. An early debate on the matter would be useful.
