Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

We did not get the complete story. My point is that we can resolve these issues. We do not want to see anyone homeless. That is the reason we took the decision. Ultimately, retaining the ban would damage the situation more. That is the only reason we took the decision, which we did not like taking. This was a very difficult decision to take. When we are told that the situation will become much worse if we continue with the ban, we have to listen to that advice.
