Confidence in Government: Motion
Dail Éireann — 2023-03-29
============================================================

Richard Bruton (FG), Dublin Bay North

We hear the Opposition continue to shout to prevent the reality from being spoken about.
We are facing very difficult issues in housing, but to pretend the Government is not committed to public housing rings absolutely hollow. Last year, 60% of the homes in Dublin were social housing. That is the reality. We need more private construction and to support home buyers, but the Opposition denounces any support that goes to home buyers or private construction. We will not solve our housing problem on that basis. I do not support any change in this Government.
