Simon Harris (FG), Wicklow

I very much look forward to that as well because people watching should know Sinn Féin wants to abolish the Land Development Agency, an agency that is now capitalised to deliver 18,000 homes. What is Sinn Féin's priority when it gets into government? It is to spend God knows how long passing legislation to scrap that agency when it is building homes. I have been there with the Minister, Deputy O'Brien, and the Minister of State, Deputy Carroll MacNeill, in Shanganagh in Shankill where we have seen people moving into their new homes.
The second question I think people will ask Deputy McDonald is when she is going to tell the people of Ireland what issues the banks have raised with Sinn Féin about its housing plan. She told the people on RTÉ's "This Week" the banks have a couple of issues but the party thinks it can overcome them all. What are the issues? When she gets to her feet, will she please let us know what the issues are? Did the banks raise one issue? Did they raise five? Did they raise three?
