Ceisteanna ó Cheannairí - Leaders' Questions

Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

With the greatest respect, what I think is scandalous is that the Deputy's party opposed 975 homes that were due to be built in Clondalkin, of which 20% were social housing. I think it is scandalous that her party opposed 500 homes in Tallaght, of which 80% would be social or affordable purchase homes. I think it is scandalous that her party opposed 278 homes in Swords. It voted against 1,200 social, affordable and private homes in Ballymastone and Donabate. That is what is scandalous - the hypocrisy that emanates from the Deputy and her party when it comes to housing provision in this country.
