Kieran O'Donnell (FG), Limerick City

I have raised previously the matter of affordable housing. I want Part V to be in place as a condition of planning permission for all new estates from now on. It is currently the case that if land was bought before 31 July 2021 and planning permission for it granted before July 2021, there is no requirement to provide 10% affordable housing under Part V. I am not talking about luxury homes like the one in Cabra owned by the Sinn Féin leader, Deputy McDonald, about which Shane Ross has posed questions in his new book.
