Ceisteanna ar Pholasaí nó ar Reachtaíocht - Questions on Policy or Legislation Dail Éireann — 2022-05-18 ============================================================ Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central They absolutely are. Deputy Barry confirmed recently that he kissed the Blarney Stone. On the point raised by Deputy Carey, I hope the legislation will be forthcoming in the next number of weeks. I will double-check that with the Minister. We will reflect on the request for pre-legislative scrutiny. Everyone should be aware that pre-legislative scrutiny will delay the scheme for months and months. We will be attacked when the scheme is not operational and houses are not being done. I am anxious to get moving and get things done in this regard. There are approximately 300 houses in Donegal on which works could start. We need to start. --- Source: Houses of the Oireachtas.
