Housing miscellaneous provisions Bill
Deputy Breathnach asked when the housing (miscellaneous provisions) Bill would be debated. The Minister said it was finishing Seanad Second Stage and the Minister for Housing expected it to reach the Dáil in the first week of December.
Since I was elected to the House, and long beforehand, we have been debating the issues of homelessness, lack of housing and fast-tracking housing. When will the housing (miscellaneous provisions) Bill be debated by the House?

It is completing Second Stage in the Seanad. I call on the Minister for Housing, Planning, Community and Local Government, Deputy Coveney, to respond to Deputy Breathnach directly.

He is another leader-in-waiting.

Maybe Deputy Kelleher is auditioning himself. We introduced that Bill in the Seanad yesterday and we finished Second Stage yesterday. I hope Committee and Report Stages will be finished in the Seanad next week and that, therefore, we will be in a position to bring it into the Dáil in the first week in December.
