We cannot mix Deputies' questions with Leaders' Questions. Deputies are entitled to ask and to have answers again.

The question asked was whether the Government would be legislating to change the regulations. The home building finance Ireland Bill, which was referred to earlier, is a priority for this session. It will present an opportunity for all parties to raise concerns and make amendments and suggestions in this context. It will present an opportunity to the Minister for Finance, who has direct responsibility, to deal with this.

Stop them now.

Too little too late.

The programme for Government commits to ensuring robust oversight of Ireland's overseas development aid budget. While I acknowledge the great work being carried out in so many countries by so many of our NGOs, what action has the Tánaiste taken, since the recent appalling revelations about Oxfam aid workers' activities in countries they are meant to be helping and about the real exploitation of the vulnerable have become public knowledge, to ensure no Irish NGO is facilitating or participating in exploitation of the vulnerable in the Third World? This is relevant to his Department.

First, on the revelations linked to Oxfam in a certain country, the first step I took was to check whether there was any Irish money supporting that particular element of Oxfam's work. There is not.

On the broader question of ensuring the significant sum of money allocated for overseas development aid - I hope we will be spending a lot more in the future - is spent in a way that is transparent, appropriate and safe, we have pretty rigorous systems to assess constantly how the money is spent, be it through NGOs, UN organisations or directly through governments. There have been examples of where money was not used appropriately. We shut off funding sources as a result. There is ongoing vigilance regarding overseas aid. We will continue to ensure the money is spent appropriately.
