Sinn Féin supports these recommendations. It is clear to anyone with common sense that the current rate of the vacant home tax, at 0.3%, is not adequate. Members of the Minister of State's own party have acknowledged as much to me off the record. In the middle of a housing crisis it is unforgivable. We fully support the recommendation on including derelict sites in an effective levy. This is something the Government should act on.
