Fergal Browne (Fine Gael)

When will the review be completed? In future we will not need these grants because modern buildings include downstairs toilets and similar facilities. The problems with the houses built in the 1950s and 1960s are coming back to haunt us. It is not a long-term problem. I thank the Minister of State for his comprehensive reply and urge the Department to focus on this for the next few years to clear the backlog. In 20 years this will be irrelevant as a result of modern building standards.
