I look forward to working with the Minister, initially on the carbon monoxide situation. The State is the largest landlord in the country. There is a lack of consistency across counties so we need some uniformity. With regard to the radon situation, I implore the Minister to take on board some of the recommendations from the International Atomic Energy Agency, which advised that a remediation grant should be made available. The house renovation incentive scheme kicks in at €5,000 so perhaps a lesser sum might be acceptable.
