Fiona O'Loughlin (FF), Administrative Panel

We will get an update on that. The Senator is right about rural housing. It is hugely important in my own county and throughout the country. We need to see rural communities survive and thrive. We cannot do that at the moment with the stringent conditions there are on rural housing. I acknowledge former Deputy, Eamon Ó Cuív, who did a lot of good work and put a lot of good policies in place. I understand there is a big celebration in Galway on Saturday night of his many years of service to Leinster House, to the people of his constituency, and to the people of the country while he was a Minister. I wish him well with that. Developing rural communities has to be a priority for us all. I support the call and we will look for that debate.
