Housing Provision
Dail Éireann — 2024-05-30
============================================================

Bernard Durkan (FG), Kildare North

The Minister has to be congratulated for the progress to date in a very difficult situation between economic factors, Covid, Brexit and all the things that have impeded progress not only on housing but on everything else as well. We welcome the success to date.
Everyone will agree that we now need a push forward. We spoke about this recently. We need to push forward and it is possible to do it now. When one gets to a certain stage of delivery it is easier than when one is low down in the production rate. I ask that consideration be given to new possibilities to accelerate delivery in respect of social housing and first-time buyers specifically in an effort to overhaul the targets ahead.
