Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I do not think it is appropriate for the Deputy to engage in party political shots when it comes to housing or homelessness. Yes, it is true that the Government is providing 10,000 people with emergency accommodation at the moment. That is not a position we want to be in. Numbers had been falling for quite some time and for many reasons they are now rising again. Let us not forget that in Northern Ireland there is a Sinn Féin housing minister. The Deputy should not roll his eyes. It is true.
