Deputy Verona Murphy raised the pollution in Waterford estuary. I will raise that with the Minister for the Environment, Climate and Communications and ask him to get the Environmental Protection Agency, EPA, to look into it.

I did not get a chance to read the article Deputy Healy-Rae referred to, but there are pressures on different aspects of our society. However, it is all part of an economy that is growing. We have more people working than ever before. It is nearly like the growing pains of a country that is getting bigger. What we need to find in every solution is a balance, and one that works for people on the ground. We all know we have to deal with the issues around climate change, but we have to do that in a way that is acceptable to people as well and get that balance right.

The Minister of State, Deputy O'Donnell, is going to take Deputy Boyd Barrett's question.

I would hate the impression to go out that the tenant in situ scheme is not working, because it is. It has proven to be a very successful scheme to date. We have well over 1,100 applications in process. We have put a target of 1,500 and we want that exceeded. I am not privy to the particulars of the cases the Deputy brought up, but I might discuss them with him to see what we can do. The scheme is there and I think every Member of the House will have had people come to them, we have contacted the relevant local authority and the homes have been purchased under the scheme. I might discuss the particular cases with the Deputy after this.
