Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I acknowledge this is a very serious issue. We have helped people with pyrite in their homes to have those homes repaired, are trying to help people with mica in their homes to have them repaired and need to help people living in defective apartment buildings with the cost of those repairs. I agree with the Deputy that it is not their fault. We can argue about whose fault it was, but it is definitely not their fault. That is why we need a scheme to help them and the Government intends to have that scheme in place in 2023. I cannot make any promises or commitments about the detail of that but the Minister, Deputy Darragh O'Brien, is working on it and I can give the commitment that this is something I care about. It affects many people in my constituency. We will do everything we can to get the scheme up and running next year.
