Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

As I have said before, I accept it is a pressing issue. On 29 July, the Minister received the report of the working group to examine defects in housing constructed between 1991 and 2013. That was a programme for Government commitment. It outlined the scale of the issues, with up to 100,000 apartments impacted. It has a potential overall total remediation cost ranging from approximately €1.56 billion to €2.5 billion. The Minister, in consultation with Government colleagues, will develop options with a view to providing support for homeowners who find themselves in a difficult financial situation through no fault of their own. He will have proposals in play before the end of this year.
