Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

The crisis is so big that we need to get on with it in terms of allowing projects and rezonings to happen. The scale of the house building that must occur means the rezoning of brownfield sites. Let us be clear about that. It is not going to be possible to get 20,000 or 30,000 units per year if we do not do that. We need cities to grow in a compact way where services already exist. All we have, though, is objection after objection.
