Simon Harris (FG), Wicklow

I thank Sinn Féin very much for the chorus behind Deputy McDonald, which is trying to assist her but I am well able to answer the question, and I thank the Deputies very much.
Affordability very much depends on a person's circumstances. I am sure what Deputy McDonald thinks it is affordable is very different to what other people might think, as I am sure what I would and what other people in this House would think. That is why we provide a range of housing solutions. The average cost of an affordable home under our schemes is €267,000 and for anyone watching in, Sinn Féin would abolish the first home scheme-----
