Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

First of all, I would say that the volume of new homes built in the past five years represents the highest level of delivery since 2008 - almost two decades ago. That is a fact, but it is not enough.
I never mentioned section 23 relief. In the past month, I never mentioned it. I repeat I was in government for the past four and a half years. Decisions were taken. Brownfield sites have not moved to the degree that they should. You can keep your heads in the sand all you like but we are going to have to work-----
