Remediation of Dwellings Damaged by the Use of Defective Concrete Blocks Bill 2022: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2022-07-13
============================================================

Darragh O'Brien (FF), Dublin Fingal

Deputy Mac Lochlainn has not been allowed to speak all week for other reasons.
We have a responsibility to people to be very honest with them and get behind the scheme to make it work for them. Anyone who looks at this in a fair and clear way will see the financial commitment behind the scheme is extremely robust. I said to Senators earlier, and I said to Deputies in the other House, that the scheme will evolve further. There is no question of this. I said it in Buncrana when I was there with Senator Blaney and the Minister, Deputy McConalogue. This is a greatly improved scheme that will deliver 100% redress. There is no downsizing penalty.
