Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

Indeed, I must pay tribute to Councillor Sean Carey as well for the leadership he gave to the council at the weekend.
One of the challenges is that somebody could be on a list for four years, five years or even longer in cities and then an increase in income could suddenly take them out of the eligibility. We have to watch that as well. The Minister is examining it and will come back to us with his proposals on this. The Minister will come back to the House on that because there are many cases similar to what the Deputy articulated and illustrated. That is the general direction of travel that we want to go in as a Government.
