Simon Harris (FG), Wicklow

I thank Deputy Smith. I look forward to a full debate on the report of the Housing Commission. I appreciate the practical point the Deputy makes about things that could be done quickly. As he says, social housing support income levels and income levels for other schemes have been increased. We need to be alert to any kind of poverty traps where people trying to work find themselves falling outside the scheme. I will ask the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage to provide the Deputy with an update on his plans in this area.
