Cian O'Callaghan (SD), Dublin Bay North

Since this Government took office, it has not come remotely close to meeting its targets on affordable housing. This year, the Government promised to deliver 5,500 affordable homes. In the first half of the year, just 22 cost-rental and 101 affordable purchase homes were completed. The Land Development Agency, LDA, did not complete a single affordable home. More than 500,000 adults are living in their childhood bedrooms. Does the Taoiseach believe the Government will meet its affordable housing targets this year? Will he support the Social Democrats' proposal to provide early-stage financing for affordable housing projects so that planning and design costs can be met?
