‹ Order of Business Housing Bill timetable
Summary
Deputy Barry Cowen seeks urgent housing legislation, citing a severe constituency crisis; the Taoiseach promises that the housing Bill will be published this session.
Will the Taoiseach inform the House exactly when we will have a housing Bill to address the crisis evident throughout the country, specifically referred to by Deputy Durkan in respect of Kildare but which is evident in other counties as well? I got a call last week from my housing officer in Offaly. He asked me not to proceed with any more representations in respect of housing because he had neither the time, energy, resources or commitment from Government to address the crisis.
