Colm Burke (Fine Gael)

I thank the Minister of State for his reply. However, in the case to which I referred, a lack of demand for housing is not the issue and the development is located within a mile of a large urban centre. It is not desirable to have such a development sitting idle, as is the case in other locations throughout the State. I take on board what the Minister of State said, but my concern is that a timeframe is put in place to deal with these issues, rather than merely saying they will be dealt with. I ask the Minister of State to seek to resolve this at an early date.
