An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business Dail Éireann — 2023-11-28 ============================================================ Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West We do not intend to do that. The number of people in emergency accommodation continued to rise when the ban was in place. All it does, unfortunately, is make the problem worse later. There is no one solution, but the main solution, we believe, is to continue to accelerate the construction of social housing and public housing. I believe this year will be a record year for the amount of social and public housing built, the highest, certainly, since the mid-seventies. --- Source: Houses of the Oireachtas.
