I recognise the issue. I represent Dublin Fingal and I meet people and talk to tenants all the time. It is difficult. We are making progress in that regard by increasing the supply of permanent homes. That is very important because we need a supply-led and housing-led response to homelessness. To answer the Deputy's question specifically, I am treating this as a matter of urgency. I required the Housing Agency to do a piece of work, and the Deputy would expect me to do that, so that what we do is based on sound ana…

Deputy Boyd Barrett mentioned social housing limits earlier. In response to other questions we said the work is nearing conclusion. I received a submission and sought further changes to it. It has gone back to the officials and we will have it very shortly. This is with regard to social housing limits throughout the country. A very important measure the Government has brought forward is a new form of tenure in cost rental. This is also in the Deputy's constituency. We have seen the first tenants in place paying app…

She is not interested in answers; she never has been.

The Deputy is not interested in answers; never has been.

You are not.

You are interested in controversy; that is all.

I have been there.

Russia’s illegal and immoral invasion of Ukraine is a watershed moment for all democracies across the world. Putin’s war of devastation has thrown down the gauntlet to us to stand by our values and live by our best traditions of decency and fairness. Ireland is not a global military power but we are a humanitarian one and we can give badly-needed compassionate refuge to those fleeing the bullets and bombs of this ruthless invasion. I pay tribute, as my colleague the Minister, Deputy O'Gorman, just did to the genero…

That is not true. That was a bit of spin from the Deputy's colleague beside him.

It never happened.

That never happened.

The Deputy should tell her friends to stop objecting to housing all over the country.

I move amendment No. 2: To delete all words after "That Dáil Éireann" and substitute the following: "notes that: — the Government is fully committed to tackling high rents and ensuring an increase in the supply of affordable, high-quality rental accommodation through continued significant capital investment including Cost Rental and other means and in a manner that respects the security of tenure for renters by ensuring equity and fairness for landlords and tenants; — the Minister for Housing, Local Government and …

I did not interrupt the Deputy once, even though I was tempted. Tá brón orm ach gabh mo leithscéal.

The fact of the matter is that we have identified measures in the Housing for All plan, which we have resourced to the tune of €4 billion. I will talk about the effect that is having right now. We have targeted 90,000 new social housing builds. This year, the target for new-build social houses is 9,000. One thing the Sinn Féin Party might do is to instruct its councillors and other public representatives right across the country to stop objecting to social and affordable housing.

The Deputies got their one-minute clips for Twitter. I am responding to the motion. I have moved the countermotion. Will the Deputies show a little bit of-----

Deputy Ó Broin has made quite a serious charge. He is losing his temper again. He cannot behave himself.

This is the juvenile behaviour we have come to expect from Sinn Féin.

What I am trying to do and what I will do, because I will not be bullied or shouted down by the Members opposite, is to speak in this House on behalf of the Government, which I have a right to do. I ask the Deputies to please respect the Chamber, if they could.

We have targeted-----
